CAMPEX 360 – VIRTUAL CAMPUS NAVIGATION WITH CLUB INFORMATION PORTAL
This paper presents the design and implementation of CampeX 360, a virtual campus navigation system combined with a club information portal. The primary goal of this project is to simplify campus exploration and make it more interactive for users. Students and visitors often face difficulties navigating large campuses or accessing detailed information through traditional maps or static systems. This project aims to address those challenges by providing an immersive and user-friendly solution.For implementation, 360° images of various campus locations were captured and used to create a virtual tour using Marzipano. A web-based application was developed using React for the frontend and Node.js for the backend. Initially, the captured images were processed and optimized to ensure smooth performance, even on slower internet connections. Interactive hotspots were then added to enable easy navigation between different locations. Additionally, the system was integrated with a backend database to store and manage club-related information, allowing users to access details about campus activities efficiently. User testing was conducted to evaluate the system’s usability, and it was observed that users could navigate more easily and access information with minimal confusion.The system is compatible with both mobile and desktop devices, eliminating the need for specialized hardware. Its modular design also allows future enhancements without major changes, making it a scalable and practical solution for modern campuses..
