I want to build a cross-platform mobile app that can identify QR-codes and will render a 3d model on it using AR.
I found that Unity in combination with Vuforia will do the trick on the AR part, but is it possible here to download and use 3D models dynamically?
Thanks
I guess what you're looking for is called AssetBundle be aware that downloading a large model (+texture) at run time can be heavy and will highly depend on the internet connection of the device.
Hope this helps.

I'm trying to find a way to create .arobject for detecting 3D assets in real world. The only solution I've found is to use Apple scanning application. But I wonder maybe there is a way to use Reality Composer to achieve this? Since Reality Composer can detect Images and Anchors maybe this is possible.
Of course you can use iOS/iPadOS version of Reality Composer for creating .arobject and then recognizing real-world object based on data for AnchorEntity(.object). Look at these two images to find out how you can do that.
Take into consideration that you can't scan cylindrical and moving real-world objects!
I'd like the Hololens to take in through the camera and project an image over tracked images and I can't seem to find a concrete way as to how online. I'd like to avoid using Vuforia etc for this.
I'm currently using AR Foundation Tracked Image manager (https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.xr.arfoundation#2.1/manual/tracked-image-manager.html) in order to achieve the same functionality on mobile, however it doesn't seem to work very well on hololens.
Any help would be very appreciated, thanks!
AR Foundation is a Unity tool and 2D Image tracking feature of AR Foundation is not supported on HoloLens platforms for now, you can refer to this link to learn more about feature support per platform:Platform Support
Currently, Microsoft does not provide an official library to support image tracking for Hololens. But that sort of thing is possible with OpenCV, you can implement it yourself, or refer to some third-party libraries.
Besides, if you are using HoloLens2 and making the QR code as a tracking image is an acceptable option in your project, recommand using Microsoft.MixedReality.QR to detect an QR code in the environment and get the coordinate system for the QR code, more information please see: QR code tracking
I'm using vuforia scanner to detect and recognize a 3D object. It works well with one object but now i want to recognize multiple objects at once. I have gone through so many links but they only speak of multiple image targets and not 3d objects. If not using vuforia, is there any other sdk to do so?
I messed with object recognition once but I'm pretty sure the databases are basically the "same" as 2D image target databases. That is, you can tell Vuforia to load more than one of them and they'll run simultaneously. I don't have Vuforia installed at the moment, but I know the setting is in the main script attached to the camera (you have to fiddle with it when creating your project in the first place to get it to use something other than the sample targets).
There is, however, the limit on how many different targets Vuforia will recognize at once (IIRC is something really small, like 2 or 3). So be aware of this when planning your project.
Im trying to create a AR Game in Unity for educational project.
I want to create something like pokemon go: when the camera open the object will be fixed somewhere on the real world and you will have to search for it with the camera.
My problem is that ARCore and vuforia groundDetection (I dont want to use targets) are only limited for few types of phone and i tried to use kudan sdk but it didnt work.
Any one can give me a tool or a tutorial on how to do this? I just need ideas or someone to tell me where to start?
Thanks in advance.
The reason why plane detection is limited to only some phones at this time is partially because older/less powerful phones cannot handle the required computing power.
If you want to make an app that has the largest reach, Vuforia is probably the way to go. Personally, I am not a fan of Vuforia, and I would suggest you use ARCore (and/or ARKit for iOS).
Since this is an educational tool and not a game, are you sure Unity is the way to go? I am sure you may be able to do it in Unity, but choosing the right platform for a project is important - just keep that in mind. You could make a native app instead.
If you want to work with ARCore and Unity (which is a great choice in general), here is the first in a series of tutorials that can get you started as a total beginner.
Let me know if you have other questions :)
You can use GPS data from phone to display object when the user arrived specific place you can show the object. You can search GPS based Augmented Reality on google. You can check this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6djed8e4n0
i have to build an app like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vetDCkbQGM4
It should simply detect the cockpit of a car and should show informations. For example "this is air conditioning", "this is switch button for the radio". The targets will be pre defined. Basically the app should detect everything and should show information.
Can I realize this with Vuforia? Which framework is suitable for this task?
I hope you guys can help me.
Cheers!
Since your targets are pre-defined, the simplest solution would be to use aruco markers to get 3D world positions/rotations through your user's camera feed.
See the AR Marker Detector in the Unity Asset Store for an example. Vuforia uses 'VuMarks' that are more intricate versions of this.
If you can't add computer-readable labels to the real world for your project, then you are talking about real-time object recognition. That is a much harder problem and not yet easily solvable in Unity as far as I know. It would require something like Google's Cloud Vision API. There is a Unity Cloud Vision project on GitHub, but I have no idea how well it works or what it's capabilities are.
Yes it is possible, you were first require to google. There are different SDK/Framework and Unity Asset store packages available.
You can use Free Vuforia AR Starter Kit from asset store to up and run your logic. Or You can also use Free AR Toolkit. There are different kind of tut available which can show you how to implement these pacakges.
