Area Targets in Vuforia Studio.

At this moment with Vuforia Studio 9.3.2, is possible to use Area Targets in our RA Experiences, ¿are there some examples or guides to implement this tracker?.

I am working with files from Matterport using their SDK and Area Target Generator, ¿is there anyone with experience in this?, I have somo problems with <target>_authoring.glb files.

 

Many thanks

Hi, you can rename the <target_name>_authoring.3dt to <target_name>_authoring.zip.

Then open it and copy the authoringMesh.glb out of it and rename it to <target_name>_authoring.glb.

Hi @dsgnrClarK, yes the problem that I found is:

When I use the Area Target Generator to import in Vuforia Studio the app generates several files:

• <target_name>.dat
• <target_name>.unitypackage
• <target_name>.xml
• <target_name>_authoring.3dt
• <target_name>_navmesh.glb
• <target_name>_occlusion.3dt
 
As the support.ptc.com, I need a zip file composed by the next files to import in Vuforia Studio:
"Upload the <target_name>.zip file that contains your Area Target files. This .zip should include the following files:
• <target_name>.dat
• <target_name>.xml
• <target_name>_authoring.glb
• <target_name>_navmesh.glb (optional for occlusion)"
 
The problem is that I don´t have the file <target_name>_authoring.glb in my folder ¿¿??.
 
I don´t know why ¿¿??.
 
The Area Target files was generated from a Matterport Space, but I can´t found <target_name>_authoring.glb.
 
Can you help me please??
 
Best regards
