Hey everyone,

I tried something (mostly just Copy-Paste).
It uses Augmented Reality Technology.
I don't know how it works or how i should initialize it, etc :)p).
Perhaps someone could try and find out?

It's still in an early early alpha stage
I don't even know how it works.

I can not understand how it is possible that no one has made ​​any post. I think you have done a really impressive work porting this.

I'm interested in AndAR Model Viewer. Have you done any test with your library? It would be wonderful to have any example. If you have done something, please tell us.

Thanks!!

I'm new on developing things for android but augemented reality is somehting i have a few ideas on how to use on future projects.

But starting from 0 and with no examples for this lib then i'm lost.

Hopefully someone in the forum can make a easy howto.

Thanks guys,

I haven't tested the lib yet because I don't know on how to work with OpenGL objects yet.
I've 'discussed" with Jim Brown here: http://www.b4x.com/forum/chit-chat/10357-android-augmented-reality.html about Augmented Reality.

If someone could test it, find some bugs, etc I can update the library.
I will add where you will be able to select your own model to view too.

The only documentation I've found is in this post: HowToBuildApplicationsBasedOnAndAR - andar - This page describes how someone can build augmented reality applications using AndAR. - AndAR - Android Augmented Reality - Google Project Hosting

The problem is that there are only a few info, so this is very difficult to do anything.

On the other hand, after reading some oftheir comments, I've found a similar project but wich is is a more advanced state: https://developer.qualcomm.com/develop/mobile-technologies/augmented-reality

Using this one, there are some commercial programs, such a:
  • AR Blitz
  • AR ZombieGate
  • Augment
  • Biljet AR - AC130 Beta
  • HOOPS AR
  • Oski AR
  • Paparazzi - Augmented Reality
  • Relict Racer
  • SlinGame
  • Zombie Room AR

Here you can see an example:
Unity3D Augmented Reality - Apartment Shadow Scene - YouTube

Library isn't working.
B4X:
'Activity module
Sub Process_Globals
   'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
   'These variables can be accessed from all modules.

End Sub

Sub Globals
   'These global variables will be redeclared each time the activity is created.
   'These variables can only be accessed from this module.
   Dim cosa As AugmentedReality

End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)

   
End Sub

Sub Activity_Resume

End Sub

Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)

End Sub

B4X:

I think the best should be someone try to build a new library from here: https://ar.qualcomm.at/qdevnet/sdk/android. I have no idea about how difficult is to create a library, but there are a lot of reasons:
-It's more powerful
-It's more easy of use
-It has lots of samples
-There is a very big community of developer behind.

I know that it probably is harder to do, but it's the best way.

Augmented reality is a topic of great great great interest, i think for everyone
Being able to have some code examples that take advantage of the library's functions would be a wonderful thing

Posting to a 7 Years old Thread is a big mistake.

If you miss Augmented reality. Write a wrapper for it.
