Multiples trackers?

Hi!

Is there a way to have multiple trackers (like in a cards game: two cards on the table would display two 3d models) ?

I tried to create 2 ClientTrackers and/or 2 Trackable2DObject but it seems that it doesn't work...

Regards

Hi Philippe,

You can have multiple targets but you cannot activate at the same time. Are you trying our sample code at Client Recognition-> Multiple targets and you receive an error? When you say that it is not working are you receiving an error message? Can you then please provide me with further details like:

- Which version of the SDK are you using? 

- Are you using the JS API?

- Are you using any of our Extensions (Titanium, Cordova, Xamarin, Unity)? If yes, which version are you using?

- What device does this happen with (os Version and model)?

 

So if I understood correctly, we can't detect 2 different markers at the same time (like in this video for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEq9P81N3U4 ).

Regards

 

Hi Philippe,

No, unfortunately you cannot identify multiple trackers at the same time. You can have multiple trackers but every time only one can be active.

Thanks

Hi Eva,

Is there expected to be support for this feature anytime soon? I feel that this is a very important feature and to not have it makes Wikitude lose a lot of its potential value.

Competitors like Vuforia support this feature and it's probably what I'll have to use now that I've found this out. 

Even though I love everything else about this SDK!

Thanks

Hi Alex,

I agree with you that this is a great feature and we are actually working on adding this functionality in our products. Although this has already been added in our feature list I cannot give you any exact timeline regarding when this should be available.

Thanks
