Model orientation in vuforia studio

Model orientation in vuforia studio

Hi,

After the sequence is played in Vuforia Studio I want to change the orientation of the model in the middle of step 2 of the sequence so that the dismantling of a particular part is seen & again I want to change the orientation in the middle of step 3 of the sequence. How do I go about this in Vuforia Studio?

Hi,

In AR it is usually better to direct the user around the model so they can see what is happening from the right direction.

If that is not possible in your case it would be easier to turn the model in Creo Illustrate.

If that is also not possible you can do animate the turning of the part also for example like this:

 

var modelname = "model-2"; //change according your model
$scope.$on('playstarted', function(evt, arg) {
  if($scope.view.wdg[modelname].currentStep == 2){
    $scope.movePart(modelname,"ry",4,180);
  }
  if($scope.view.wdg[modelname].currentStep == 3){
    $timeout(function(){
      $scope.movePart(modelname,"ry",-4,-180);
    }
             , 1500);// adjust time in ms to start in the middle of the step
  }
}
          );
$scope.movePart= function(partName, d, val, distance){
  var start = $scope.view.wdg[partName][d];
  var inter =  $interval(function() {
    $scope.view.wdg[partName][d] += val;
    if(val>0){
      if( $scope.view.wdg[partName][d]>=start+distance)
      {
        $interval.cancel(inter);
      }
    }
    else{
      if( $scope.view.wdg[partName][d]<=start+distance)
      {
        $interval.cancel(inter);
      }
    }
  }
                         ,50)
  }

Hi Sebben,

Thanks a lot for your help the solution given by you did worked. I just wanted to know about the parameters inside the code mentioned below:

$scope.movePart(modelname,"ry",-4,-180);

modelname & "ry" I got those, can you please tell me about the other 2 parameters which are : -4 & -180.

 

Thanks once again for your help.

Yes I could have documented that better, sorry. So "val" is the change per step (in this case -4 degrees per step) and distance is the complete change after that the animation stops (in this case after -180 degrees)

You can adjust the animation time by changing the val parameter.
