Hi,

We want to show drawing as a AR experience on device. So my first question is how to do this?

secondly, i tried to convert drawing into SVG / PNG and insert in vuforia studio, but facing issue to display these SVG on iOS device it shows as blank window. But it is showing properly on android.

 

So i want to know the proper process how i can show drawing in vuforia properly? what is the best way.

 

Regards,

Hi @ppandarkar-2_183531 ,

 

there currently does not exist an intended process for displaying of drawings in Vuforia Studio/View. The design approach there is to show light ware geometry as 3d - using the pvz format.

Actually, the pvz format could also contain some 2d drawing geometry as viewable files.  This means that you can review a pvz containing drawing in Creo View and it will display the drawing there .

In the picture above we can see that the pvz file contains a plot of the drawing /plt format

But so var I know this will not work in Vuforia. I will test this to be 100% on the save side and will provide a feedback if this will work.

currently we need to convert /as you already try/ the drawing to a picture / raster format/ or to SVG vector graphic format. There is no special way designed, so far I know; the problem that this may be does no work on particular devices is that there could be the different availability of the different platforms to handle images/ especially if they required more system resources, also the different platforms could support different formats and maximum of file size which could be displayed in an app

I tested it now. I exported a drawing to pvz and open in the Vuforia studio and as expected the model widget did not display the 2d contains.

So this, means the approach to display drawing will be to convert it to image with the minimum size- of course the used size should allow reasonable resolution for display

Hi..

Thanks for your response.
I also tried with PNG and svg but facing problem on iPad as well as iPhone. So not getting way to achieve this. As you said it might device platform issue. But how I can handle this if I want to show experience properly on both devices android and iOS.
