Augmented reality technology has grown significantly, with applications developed for education, gaming, and advertising. However, its potential in the medical field is still underexplored. This research contributes to this area by developing an augmented reality application using Unity that detects and displays a medical prosthesis via QR code scanning. The app enables patients and medical professionals to interactively visualize a virtual prosthesis, improving understanding of its form and function. Moreover, the app supports medical education by facilitating learning for students and professionals about medical prostheses and related procedures. This paper details the development process, from planning and design to implementation and testing. This contribution aims to expand augmented reality in the medical field, with the potential to enhance medical care and education.
