Thanks for sharing the project files, Kris! This was really helpful. I managed to create my Android and iOS packages following you steps. iOS version worked perfectly as you instructed. But Android version is not working. When I launch the application on my Pixel 2, it doesn't show the placement indicator and because of that plane model is no getting added. One thing I noticed which publishing android version, I get Android SDK is outdated message (SDK build tool version 28.0.1 < 28.0.3). Did I miss any step?

That's awesome mate. Tell me something. Is it possible to export the tracked data in some way? For instance, can a point cloud or a mesh be created using the tracked data so that it may be exported as an OBJ or FBX? Thanks.

Hi, I noticed that the placement indicator disappears when vertical walls are concerned, how can we update the placement indicator for vertical walls?

This is the best execution of any Unity tutorial I’ve ever seen. The pacing is perfect and you ex-pained all of the concepts and needed details to both follow along and carry the knowledge forward for our own use. I’m hopeful you’ll create more in the future. Unity should pick you up to do their official tutorials. Would love to see one on using the various AR remote capabilities (ARKit remote, ARFoundation remote). It seems there is extremely sparse information on these and no reliable documentation on actually getting them working.

For everyone having problems on android with the placement indicator not showing i got it working! This is what i did: 1. To your AR Session Origin gameobject add the component "ARPlaneManager". (You do not need to provide a plane prefab unless you want to visualize the detected planes) 2. In the Tracked Pose Driver component of you AR Camera change the Update Type to "Update" (The marker will still show if you omit this step but it will be super jittery) 3. Enjoy a smooth marker! :D

Really great tutorial. Professional quality and very easy to follow, job well done sir, congratulations. Only one addendum, they changed something in ARFoundation with the Raycast. Here are some steps to follow. 1.- Add the script to the "AR Session Origin" GameObject. All the steps that follow are in the same script you are working in during this tutorial. 2.- Add to the top: using UnityEngine.XR.ARSubsystems; 3.- Create a variable: private ARRaycastManager aRRaycastManager; 4.- In the Start Method add: aRRaycastManager = FindObjectOfType(); 5.- Instead of arOrigin use aRRaycastManager Should look like this: aRRaycastManager.Raycast(screenCenter, hits, TrackableType.Planes); That should cover it.

@iradmir777 4 роки тому

First of all thanks for the amazing tutorial, was really helpful. For those who were unable to see the placement indicator: 1. Device should support arcore( i have rooted redmi note 7 device which officially does not support ARcore after root everything should work fine). 2. Depending on your camera quality and lighting conditions it may take some time for indicator to appear 3. If scene is not working uncheck x86 under target architectures in player settings 4. In the new versions of AR foundation you don't need to check AR core support under XR settings Thanks again. I am planning to create AR application using Chrome browser, hopefully you can give me some tips

First of all, thanks for this great tutorial, it's really well explained. Secondly, I want to say that I had some problems with detecting the plain on my Android device, especially when switching from the floor to the table and I observed that my camera was not in focus. If someone has the same problem here is the solution I found: Add the "AR Camera Options" component to your "Placement Indicator" and make sure the Focus Mode is Auto. The camera will always try to find a focus point and the image doesn't look blurry anymore. Hope this helps.

@TheUnityWorkbench 5 років тому

Daniel, thanks so much for that extremely helpful tip!

@Rytalfo 5 років тому

Tip to go along with this: Make sure you have updated AR Foundation to Version 1.0.0 preview-22 in order to get the "AR Camera Options" component.

For many of you with problems, ARFoundation have evolved a lot since this video (it is in preview after all). To be able to follow this, look at 4:17 at the versions of each Package. Try to get those specific versions of the packages in the Package Manager, by clicking the arrow beside the package name and then "See all versions". Having said that, for some reason, it only worked here with AR Foundation "preview.6 - 1.1.0", which is one version above what is shown in the video. Also, if you are using Android, there is a comment by Conviley which fixes the Indicator not showing.
