Vufroia Studio - Animation in 3D space

Hello dear PTC Community!

We are looking for the same thing! Could you share your thoughts about it?

Thank you very much!

Best Regards

Hi all!

Regarding first video (video with Polaris, ) https://youtu.be/c3Nlb1Rz9wY?t=34 - please, see this video about 44-45 sec (0:45) - here you could see Vuforia watermark in the left down corner.  Vuforia Engine (former Vuforia SDK) watermark It means PTC made this AR application in Vuforia Engine (+ Unity, may be).

To install video clip "Player" into Unity scene supported by Vuforia AR camera - it is the trivial task.

You create Unity scene, add here vuforia-unity unitypackage, add vuforia engine license and you can see new class of Unity Game Objects - Vuforia objects. First of all - AR-camera,  then - image as a target container/ And after that you can add in Hierarchy under Image native Unity object - Quad. After that you can put into Quad new quad-component- Player for mp4 (or another video format).   You can see similar example in youtube as  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtiUx_szKbI  (since 12:27 ...)

Regarding others - I don't know how do it in Vuforia Studio without extensions.

Hi,

The first one is not a Vuforia Studio Experience but a stand-alone application made with Vuforia Engine (and Unity i think). Vuforia Engine is an SDK so you can use it with other software but require knowledge of programming languages and other software. If you search online there are a lot of tutorial about using Unity combined with Vuforia Engine.

The second one i think has been realized with a little trick.

As most of you know, a video is a sequence of images called frames, in order to make this effect they have created a limited number of frames (i can count 5 frames from the video) and exported each one separately, now you have 5 images, each one representing a frame. Now you can simulate the animation changing the 3DImage source every X milliseconds with a little bit of javascript code.

Probably you can achieve the same result using a custom shader but it's more complex.

Regarding the third one, as far as i know the only way to make something like that is with a custom shader but my knowledge about shaders is very limited therefore i can't be more helpful.
