Learning AR

Learning AR is really painful. So many different ways to do 1 thing and so many blocks along the way because of updates in softwares. But I managed to get close to where I wanted. I was able to make a multiple object tracking and make these shapes appear on the different targets.

The red one is more what I want to do for my project which is a sort of highlight over the object that is also clickable, and when you click on it, information about that particular object will appear on the screen.

Along the way to properly place the highlight over the object, to make it clickable and to make the image appear I had to learn a little bit about coding for games and applications which is so frustrating and I still don't really know what I am doing, just copy and paste the codes most of the times but I probably need to dive a little bit more into it because what I've learned until now is not enough.

The above code allowed me to move the cube and place it properly over the object on my phone while at the same time it was tracking down it's position to input in unity which was really handy. God bless that genius person who made a video about that code on YouTube 😁😁

And this is where I am right now.

I manage to make the cube clickable and an image appear when you click on it. However, like I mentioned about the blocks before, there was many here that prevented me from doing it the right way that was shown in the tutorial videos and I kind of messed around with the settings to get it to work, but it's not working properly though. After the second click you cannot see the image again. That is why I need to look into the coding part more and try to make it work.

And also after some research I just found out that when tracking multiple objects, the more objects that is being tracked the more it's going to affect the cpu of phones that is running the app, so I am kind of trying to find a way to make work without using too many objects or if possible without multiple object tracking.
