Connect cloud database with sample appliction vuforia

By bartleemans on Tue, 03/26/2013 - 12:30

So I downloaded a sample app from the vuforia developer site: CloudRecogniton-2-0-7.

I downloaded the sample code and i managed to make it work on my android device. Now I want the program to be able to do the recognition with pictures i have uploaded myself. Therefor I created a cloud database where I added pictures as targets. Using the instructions.

But how can I use this cloud database to work with my sample application?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, you can find the instructions here:

Thank you!

I followed the steps but I want to show different information than the sample books.

I have created a text file: book.txt with the following content:

Hi, as explained in the link I was referring to, the sample only works if you put one of those strings (i.e. one of "samplebook1.json" or "samplebook2.json" or "samplebook3.json") in your metadata file;

Ah i see!

But even when my file contains only "samplebook1.json" it is not working..

Ok, what is the tracking Rating of your targets ?

3/5 so the image will track in most conditions i think.

Ok, rating of 3 stars should be sufficient;

I tried it a bunch of times but still the application does not recognize the picture i have uploaded in my cloud..

Even tried a picture with a 4/5 rating but still nothing.

What am I doing wrong?

- metadata is OK (as we already clarified)
