This week during we class, we learned how to utilise unity in order to create an Augmented Reality three-dimensional object appear via photo recognition.
The initial step requires using a website called Vuforia Engine (https://developer.vuforia.com/), finding an image online and saving the same image to a mobile device. Then log into the Vuforia engine and upload the chosen image with the correct aspect ratio and size for the device you intend to utilise with the AR camera.
The downloaded files from vuforia can then be imported into unity as a package, that can be attached to an AR camera as a database. This then displays the previously saved image in unity that a 3D object can be placed onto (I have created a cube), which then appears once the AR camera viewpoint is opened.
