Develop 16 Augmented Reality Apps in Vuforia 8 in Unity 2020

Important Note before Downloading and Installing Unity and Vuforia

This lecture shows you how to download and install Vuforia and Unity 3D

If you are getting an error with the Vuforia AR Camera then read this.

Make sure you use the 32-bit Unity SDK with Vuforia.

Create a simple AR cube in Vuforia

A Contribution from Prashanth (Andy) Menon on troublefree Unity-Vuforia Installation on Windows 10:

This lecture answers some of the common issues regarding Vuforia.

• In this lecture I answer where to find the images used in this course for the IOTAR Database
• How to solve the blank texture issue in vuforia

Write a script to make your cube spin. Really cool for more immersion

Once you have mastered single target detection. We move on to detecting multiple markers in Vuforia AR.

Augmented Reality Video Playback in Vuforia and Unity

This Tutorial shows you how to get video to playback in Unity but also to make the movie play in Augmented Reality. So the application of this is if you have AR glasses you can view a virtual floating TV on any surface where your AR marker is placed. There are some bugs in Unity where if you import the video it takes forever and it became unresponsive. I am not sure if I just have this problem or if it is a generic problem. Let me know in the Comments down below.

Implementing an Augmented Reality Virtual Buttons in Vuforia Tutorial

This video shows you how to rotate a zombie in Unity using the Vuforia
Augmented Reality Unity plugin. If you want to use buttons in AR rather
than on your screen then check out this tutorial on how it is done.

It would be lovely if you can leave a review for me :)

Hey guys so in the previous video you seen the demonstration of the air
drawing in augmented reality. This video shows you the tutorial of how I
did it. I used the leap motion to capture the hand movements and then
used the Augmented Reality Marker as my drawing canvas. The benefits of
using Vuforia AR is that you can move your drawing around easily and
draw around a sculpture. All this can be done in Unity 3D.

Text Detection and Recognition Tutorial In Vuforia and Unity 3D

This Tutorial shows you how to implement Text Recognition in Vuforia within the Unity 3D environment. I show you how to detect text from a camera in Unity.

Vuforia can detect words that belong to a pre-defined word list. The SDK provides a list of 100,000 commonly used English words that you can incorporate into your Text Recognition apps. You can also define custom word lists and filters that block words from being recognized.

Vuforia Smart Terrain Tutorial - Augmented Reality in Unity
Vuforia's Smart Terrain feature allows for a new level of immersion in Augmented Reality Apps and games. The Smart Terrain Feature allows you to reconstruct as well as augment your physical environment for visualization and gaming applications. This tutorial shows you how to implement Vuforias Smart Terrain in Unity 3D.

Augmented Reality Course -  Cylindrical Targets in Vuforia Tutorial

Hey guys, this is a tutorial that shows you step by step on how to detect a cylindrical object and use it in Augmented Reality. If you have AR games in Unity SDK, you can have cylinders become towers. The detection accuracy in Vuforia is amazing.

An Unreal Engine Demo 3D video that was tweaked into Augmented Reality. This video shows the possibilities of AR and using 3D game engines. If you want I can post a link to the executable.

Conclusion to the Vuforia Augmented Reality Course.

Want to learn how to build your OWN Spiderman EDITH Glasses AI prototype? Watch this tutorial series to see how I prototype my own glasses with an Intelligent AI.

Project EDITH Glasses DIY - Phase 1 : AI Face Detection (Spider-Man Far From Home) Hey welcome back, So I am really cool and excited to start this new series which will be to try and reproduce the tech from Spiderman Far from home, the EDITH glasses.

Not sure if you guys have seen the movie, but spoiler alert … essentially Tony Stark hands down his Super Smart AI Glasses called EDITH which stands for Even Dead, Im The Hero … Classic tony. So these glasses give Peter Parker access to all of Stark Tech and also has smart Augmented Reality capability.

This series will try and push the boundaries of existing technology and see how many features we can fit in this project. So just some acknowledgements to some really cool people who have worked on EDITH Glasses are The Hacksmith, JLaservideo.

So before we dive into our approach to this technology lets check what has already been done. We are going to take Augmented Reality to the next level!

Lets see how to make smart AI glasses in this video.

Hey guys and welcome back. So, in the last lecture we made our attempt at face detection in Phase 1 of the EDITH glasses DIY prototype. So essentially, we used Unity with OpenCV to perform AI face detection using a ResNet CNN. In this video we are going to build on top this prototype and upgrade it with facial recognition.

As you can see from the demo after training the model, we are able to recognize the faces of 3 people, where we then instantiate a graphical UI for each persons Identity. This will allow us to get close to the Spiderman E.D.I.T.H. glasses functionality that we saw in the movie. We are going to take Augmented Reality to the next level!

Hey guys and welcome back. So in tutorial, Im going to show you how to add AI object detection functionality to our EDITH Glasses prototype. So, what is cool about this phase is that we are able to detect multiple objects simultaneously and in real-time. This makes it really easy to integrate the detections with a heads up display GUI animation.

If you missed the previous phases of Project EDITH. We prototyped facial recognition and face detection to be able to identify people similar to how it was done in Spiderman Far from Home.

In this video, Phase 3 we are going to continue object detection using a MobileNet AI model using OpenCV for Unity. There was an option for using Yolo but it was more process intensive and we have to keep processing power in the back of our minds, should we wish to port all this to a mobile platform like android.

E.D.I.T.H Glasses - Phase 4 Tutorial : Build your own JARVIS and EDITH AI (Spider-Man Far From Home) Project EDITH Hey guys and welcome back, I hope you enjoyed that little demo of Project EDITH Phase 4! So this demo shows of an AI Assistant capability, whereby we are able to demo a design and development application using our EDITH Glasses.

We were able to call on JARVIS or EDITH to assist us in the design of the EDITH smart glasses. Now from the demo, there are a few cinematic enhancements that you should be aware off. First off the quality of the Text to Speech (TTS) engine using IBM Watson is different.

So both these voices are from the IBM Watson TTS Engine. The better sounding one is produced using an Enhanced Deep Neural Network (a DNN) for Text to Speech synthesis whereas the old one uses traditional methods.

Check out these cool resources for the course.

If you are using Vuforia 6.2 then this lecture is for you. It is a replica of AR cube lecture but in Vuforia 6.2
