Beginning Vuforia and TrackableResult

Hello, I am a beginner trying to learn Vuforia and am planning to do it entirely in Android Studio. Many of the online tutorials that I found are in Unity, or aren't detailed enough to give enough information. One of the most helpful articles I found was this, https://developer.vuforia.com/forum/faq/android-how-can-i-build-basic-vuforia-app, but the level of complexity stated is very different from the samples. Could a simple image detection app be done as simply as is stated in the article, or does it require all of the code that's in the samples. Also, I'm trying to get the pose of the image once it has been detected, and I think that TrackableResult should be the class I get it from. If I want to get the data into the activity, can I just get the results from the State? The samples only seem to have anything to do with TrackableResult in the renderer, so it's a bit confusing. 

Thanks in advance
