On October 7th an update will be made to the log in process for Vuforia Capture on HoloLens. This change will only affect Vuforia Capture HoloLens users. Users wanting to record Azure Spatial Anchors within their Capture will need to install a new version of the Capture app.  After October 7th, users will not be able to log into the Vuforia Capture app without first updating to version 11.17.219.0 or later. Vuforia Capture version 11.17.219.0 is available for download in the Microsoft App Store on your HoloLens. 

Hi everyone,  In my project I load a json object from thingworx and want to manipulate the content of this file.json.    The upload of the file from TW to Studio works fine, the code that is used for is:  // -- APERTURA FILE JSON -- var MODEL_JSON = { 'carrello': 'prova.json' } console.log('load MODEL_JSON files'); $scope.GetJsonFromTwxRepository = function (path) { $scope.$applyAsync(function () { $rootScope.$broadcast('app.mdl.Thing-Repository.svc.LoadJSON', { "path": path } ); } , 500); console.log("after call of GetJsonFromTwxRepository") }; $scope.modelDataDynamic = []; $scope.$on('$ionicView.afterEnter', function () { console.log('Calling service'); angular.forEach(MODEL_JSON, function (value, key) { // nel nostro caso: value --> 'carrello', key --> 'prova.json' $scope.GetJsonFromTwxRepository('/' + value); console.log(value); console.log("$ionicView.afterEnter was called "); $scope.$root.$on('LoadJSON-complete', function (event, args)

Please share the document of uploading the extra Thingmarks to the experience server.   Thanks in advance.

Goodmorning everyone,the setup of the AR experience I'm working on is based on a license that includes Thingworx, ptc navigate and windchill. All working and connected to Vuforia. I need to build an application that produces the following actions:1. load a pvz model;2. Once I have clicked on a component in the model, I must be able to trace the code of the clicked component Regarding point 2 it is not clear to me how to interact with Thingworx, so as to go back to:- production order- assembly code- part code passing through Windchill. Anyone have any ideas on how to setup the project in Thingworx?

This issue has been resolved in Chalk 3.5.1 for iOS.    After updating to iOS 14 and Chalk 3.5.1, be sure to allow Chalk to connect to devices within your Local network. This allows for peer-to-peer delivery of audio, video, & images within the same network.        The current Chalk release for iOS, version 3.4, is known to experience crashes on iOS 14. The crash occurs as soon as the Local user shares their camera view. We are actively working on a fix for this issue and will update this post when it is available.

Hi, I created a 3 figures in creo illustrator and imported into Vuforia studio. In 2D canvas drag and drop the select widget for creating a list of figures. Below i have attached the code which i used to create a list. List and 3D images are working fine. But I'm unable to play the animation of the sequences.   How to add the buttons to play the animation?. kindly guide me.      // create a list of identifiers and descriptions for the 'select list' widget var stepListJSON; PopulateStepList = function() { stepListJSON=[ { stepID: "Mesh panel removal", stepTitle: "Mesh panel removal", stepNum: 1 }, { stepID: "Mesh panel assembly", stepTitle: "Mesh panel assembly", stepNum: 2 }, { stepID: "Lubrication", stepTitle: "Lubrication", stepNum: 3 }, ]; console.log(stepListJSON); $scope.view.wdg.stepList.list= stepListJSON; } //when the model is loaded, execute the following function(s) - view action binding in the 'Model Loaded' JS property windo

Hello -    The Leadership team at MIT sent me the following questions (That I didn't personally have the answers to) following a discussion today. They've asked me to answer these questions by the end of business today as they're looking to move quickly on AR procurement. If someone could please answer these questions and send the answers to rmcbride@ptc.com - i would be VERY Grateful. Thank you all for your support and assistance.   Hi Bobby,   Thank you for meeting with us today. As we discussed, there are some follow-up questions we’d like answered. The questions are: How easy is it to provide the application to students? What are the range of operating systems Vuforia supports? [ Tablets / Phones / HUD ]  Can you create custom UI elements? [ Look and Feel ]  What is provided as part of the cloud services?   How transferable is this product over to unity if we wanted to expand on our application or add c# components?  Does

Hi, I have error, when I'm trying to Preview my project. It's hololens project. At preview I can see:

Hi everyone,  I'm developing some project that must be integrated with windchill.  I have to scroll service bom stored in windchill and something else similar.    Are there any way to link Vuforia with windchill through Thingworx?   Thank you.     

I have made a Sequence in Creo Illustrate of about 10 steps. I have also made a button in Vuforia Studio and the binding property for that button is play. So whenever I click on that button, the steps from the sequence will be played one at a time. I want to make a 2D Image or a 3D Image visible on the 5th step. And automatically make it disappear at the end of the 5th step. Is there some kind of a code to trigger a function at that particular step.

Goodmorning everyone,I would like to create an AR experience that reproduces animation sequences without having to link the "Play" button with the corresponding model. Looking at the bottom panel in Vuforia Studio, the button-template link corresponds to the command: app.view ["Maintenance"]. Wdg ["cart"]. Svc.play. How can I use it in the javascript file?

Hi, I'm working on AR project. I have three different figures named as 1) Mesh panel Removal, 2)Mesh panel assembly, 3)Lubrication. I have animation for 2 figures and Lubricator doesn't have animation. I have used select tool to create a dropdown. Here the problem is binding the image with Lubricator. When I select 1st two figures from dropdown , the animation works fine. I want to add the image on Lubricator, but if I add the image, it has been reflecting to all the figures. Could you please tell me that how can I link the image only for lubricator?

Hi everyone,  I have a file.txt that is written with json rules.

I was able to load a GIF into Vuforia Studio, however, when in preview, the GIF does not play.  is it possible for a GIF to run in V Studio?  if so, is there any background script needed?

I am developing an augmented reality app for a tablet.  The experience starts with the scan of a QR code and you access the following views:- purchase (purchase of some components selected from a 3D model)- maintenance (allow the possibility to proceed with some maintenance operations (assembly / disassembly of components)) Each view loads a model (not necessarily the same).   Question How can you upload a model without scanning a thingmark?Is it possible to upload a part of a model by scanning a QR code?   Thank you so much. 

A new build of the Vuforia Capture application is now available on the Microsoft store. Please download and install BOTH the latest Hololens OS update (build 19041.1117) and Capture app (build 11.16.217.0) to resolve previous video corruption issues when capturing a procedure using HoloLens2

Hi Studio Gurus,   May I know if anyone have tried to use Studio 3D Chart Widget extension to display time series chart in 3D eyewear AR experience?    I have difficulties in configuring the timestamp format and start date for the chart. It seems that the widget doesnt correspond to the format I configure (both timestamp and start date value).    Preview result   Studio Configuration   Regardless of the issue, I tried to publish the experience and view it in Hololens (both 1  and 2) but the 3D chart doesnt seem to appear in the experience. Not sure if this widget is really supported in 3D eyewear.    If anyone has experience with this widget, appreciate if you can share your thought.   Thanks!  

This issue has been resolved in Vuforia View 8.5.13 for iOS.    There is currently a known issue with Vuforia View and iOS 14. Upgrading to iOS 14 may impact Spatial Target functionality in Vuforia View. No other targets (ThingMark, Model, Image) will be affected by the iOS update. We are actively working on and verifying a fix for this issue and will update this post when it is available.

When I put my email attribute to connect and test. I get an error: "There was an error while testing your identity Provider: The 'email' attribute mapping is incorrect."   Sometimes, it brings me to my company login page then this error occurs. Other times it goes directly to this error page.    Has anyone else had this issue?

So I just acquired a 3DConnection SpaceMouse Pro and was curious why Vuforia does not utilize functionality from it but Creo does (according to posts under Creo section where other users talk about limited functionality, not personal experience)? Which I would be content with having the functionality of just the "cap".
