Abstract
Consider a world in which graffiti is more than just paint on a wall; it is a multifaceted experience that mixes physical and digital arts. This is the purpose of GraffAR, a new smartphone programme that enables users to create their own AR graffiti. GraffAR is meant for all users, not just technical pros. The software was designed with user experience in mind, with Unity serving as its technology foundation and Figma providing a user-friendly interface. This project investigates more than just the app itself. We'll look at GraffAR's technical features, its ability to shift public perceptions of graffiti, and the broader implications for education, community participation, and the future of AR technology.
