Augmented Reality

Hi everyone,I’m building an AR app in Vuforia Studio 9.25.6 for an iPad. My project uses several PVZ files from Creo Illustrate, each with the full gearbox (about 300 parts) and its own sequence. The project is now about 3.4 GB, which is too big to import (2 GB limit) and too heavy for the iPad.When I upload the Illustrate PVZ files with “Run CAD Optimizer”, Studio shows “CAD optimizer failed”. Without the optimizer, the sequences work fine, but the files are very large.Is there a way to reduce the PVZ size and still keep the sequences, including visibility and transparency changes? Would running pvsoptimize.exe with pvsoptimize_for_illustration_with_view_state.rcp work, and what is the correct syntax?

Hello, do we have a workshop or a guide for "how to create advanced widgets"? Because creating simple widgets is very easy. I've created already some custom widgets for my company, so i have experiences with that, but now i'm running in an uknown issue. I'm trying to change the bahavior of the existent BarCodeSannner. I want to be able to scan continuously until the user presses the "cancel"-button. For this i copied all needed files, renamed the needed parts so that now we have the original "scan"-widget and the copied "scan2". At the widget "scan2" i've deleted the part where the scanner stops after a successful scan. But it seems that it is failing at the initializing part. i have checked everything and followed the same steps as i did at my other widgets but it doesnt work. this why i need an advanced guide but i cant find anything.

I am using Vuforia Studio Release 10.4.0 and Datecode10.4.0.0 If I select SQLite, will it be PTC supported?

Hello,I created a UR5-style robot in Blender with a correct parent-child hierarchy.Inside Blender, all joints move correctly as a full kinematic chain.After exporting to FBX and importing into Vuforia Studio, the hierarchy seems broken:parts rotate independently child links do not follow the parent the robot falls apart when using sliderQuestions:Does Vuforia Studio fully support Blender FBX hierarchies? Should Armatures/Bones be avoided? Is PVZ/Creo Illustrate recommended instead of FBX for articulated robots? 4. How can I implement it correctly?My goal is to control the robot with sliders in Vuforia Studio so that it behaves like a real UR5 robot, where moving one joint also moves all following links correctly as a proper kinematic chain. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!

Hi everyone,I am working with 2D views in Vuforia Studio, but when I run the experience on an iPad using the Vuforia View app, I still see a very thin strip of the camera feed at the bottom of the screen.This happens even though the experience is intended to be purely 2D.Has anyone encountered this issue before?Is this expected behavior in Vuforia View? Is there a way to completely disable the camera view for 2D-only experiences? Or is there some configuration or setting I might be missing? Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance 🙏

モデルターゲット用モデルは、トラッキングを開始すると非表示になるが、タップの当たり判定を持ち続けてしまっています。この当たり判定を無くすオプションを追加していただけないでしょうか。現状では、モデルターゲット用モデルが常に“見えない壁”として立ちはだかり、奥にある別のモデルウィジェットのタップを妨げています。モデルを直接タップできる直観的な操作を提供したいが、それが出来ません

Hello team I am facing one issue with hololens2 view in vuforia studio.where I want to visualize a 2 floor building when I am viewing the experience the box kind of view is coming where it restricted the view. When we turn the head the remaining experience we can see but the view is coming in rectangular box view. If any solution is available for this reply ASAP.

Hello. I am developing an AR measurement system in Unity using Vuforia Engine for a Windows Standalone build rather than UWP. My goal is to track a single Image Target moving on a perfectly flat physical table to precisely extract its spatial coordinates.I have tested this setup using both a standard PC webcam and an external Canon DSLR camera with a 50mm lens. Using the 50mm lens significantly improved the overall tracking precision and almost completely eliminated the "bowl effect" spatial distortion caused by wide-angle lenses, but a systematic error persists. As I slide the target away from the center of the camera along the depth axis, the tracked height systematically drops or rises instead of remaining at zero. This creates a virtual tilted plane effect, although the tilt angle is noticeably smaller with the 50mm lens compared to the standard webcam.Plane visualization made with MATLAB (webcam)I tried changing the World Center Mode to both "Specific Target" and "Device". I also

Hi all!Problem  is:    so many experiences were published  on TWx ES  and now I need spend time when I open Library list in Vuforia View to find  my own or any other I need to start. Is there any way to change a flat list of experienses in the library to a hierarchical one or organized by publishing? And it is the only small part of the ocal library ☹️Thanks in advance.

Vuforia Studioの2Dキャンバスで作業をしているとき、例えば縦向きのiPadを指定していると画面下部のウィジェットを選択するためにスクロールが必要になります。現在のところウィンドウサイズにかかわらず2Dキャンバスの表示サイズは変わらないため、2Dキャンバス全体を確認するためにはブラウザの表示を縮小するしかありません。しかしブラウザの縮小をするとすべての文字サイズが小さくなってしまい作業がしづらいです。１クリックで２Dキャンバスのみが全体表示できるようなボタンを追加してもらえますでしょうか。

You see i want all these 5 Folderlike things, that include .pbk-Analysis I created in Mechanism in just one scale. But i can only open one in one scale right now and its impossible to create the desired flow in just one .pbk. So how can I put all 5 of them on this blank scale?

Hi everyone, I’m working with the Grid Layout in Vuforia Studio and I’m trying to dynamically show or hide specific rows. The problem I’m facing: I cannot dynamically change the row or column class. I also cannot set their height/size to 0px at runtime. Simply hiding the widget inside the cell doesn’t help, because the row and column space remains visible. My goal is simple:I want all rows to exist in the layout, but I want to toggle their visibility (visible/invisible) without leaving empty space. Is there any workaround or method to: hide a full row in a Grid Layout? collapse its height (similar to CSS display: none)? or dynamically modify grid definitions at runtime? Any suggestions or best practices would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!

I set up a model that looks like a shell, with other models contained inside it (spatially enclosed by this shell). Then I set a modeltarget for this shell model, hoping to achieve Tracking Acquired with this shell. Once I successfully Tracking Acquired, I make all the internal model visible and hope they can trigger userpick events(Listen through home.js).The current problem is that if this model is contained inside the shell, it won't trigger userpick events. If some part of an internal model isn't completely wrapped by this shell, clicking on the unwrapped part correctly triggers userpick (throughout the process, the shell remains hidden and has no userpick events set). This occurs on iOS devices. However, everything works fine in the preview.vuforia studio, vuforia View and ES are all the latest version 10.2.0 I hope someone can resolve my doubts. Thank you.
