AR navigation view while person walking

By rakeshprajapati on Wed, 03/05/2014 - 05:01

I am new to Vuforia and I am creating an indoor navigation application in android and I am able to display the navigation path and user current position on the Map which any normal navigation app does. I am thinking of showing AR view which will display navigation path along with arrows (Straight Arrow, Left Arrow, Right Arrow etc) when user keep the mobile in front of him and walks. The AR navigation view path and arrows should change as user walks. 

Since I already have navigation path calculated which is being displayed on the normal Map, I know coordinates of various tunr points on the path. Is there some sort of ready to use lib/api available to create such augmented reality navigation view in Vuforia? 

 

I would really appreicate any sort of pointers/ideas.

Vuforia provides these main features:

- rendering of the camera video feed (akas "video background")

- detection and tracking of known image targets or frame markers

Hello, 

I'm trying to make the same app as you, but with route guidance on Android. I have already developped the app on a map and i want to change it to an augmented reality app.

Could you help me with this?

Hello,

I also want to develop that kind of application, but my problem is to anchoring target very precisely as it will be located inside building.

So maybe I should map precisely the building and use indoor wifi to create API's targets (like pokemon go)? Or BEACONS?

hi rakesh 

 I want to know how you developed indoor navigation app means using beacon, wifi or something?

 

Hi, Iam very new to Unity and Vuforia. I had been learning about Vuforia Area Targets. I wanted to create an AR Navigation App using Vuforia. I had Scanned an Area and Imported Area Targets to my project.
