Could you build this?
Partial Basic coloring templates are easy to make, but extracting a child's flat 2D coloring sheet, segmenting it, and projecting/animating it correctly in an AR scene requires non-trivial AR and computer vision implementation.
What it would actually take: A production version would use Unity or Swift with ARKit/ARCore, integrating OpenCV or a custom edge-detection/segmentation model to capture the 2D artwork and map it as dynamic textures onto rigged 3D models. The hard part is cleanly separating colored strokes from paper backgrounds under poor lighting and animating them smoothly in an interactive AR environment. This requires specialized mobile AR and computer vision engineering.
