I've ran some samples and am getting ready to put some of my ideas to work this weekend. To help me narrow down my list, can QCAR pick up lines or dots?
I'm referring specifically to dots or lines drawn on a piece of paper. I was thinking of trying out some basic tech demos with some algorithms I've learned in class. Stuff like finding a route through a drawn maze, or doing nearest neighbor with a series of dots, etc.
My ideas may not even be possible with AR, and be more suited to analyzing an image, but was just curious as to what all could be a trackable.
So 5 trackables at a time isn't a hard limit, it's just a good starting point for performance and usability.
Do keep in mind that this means 5 simultaneously tracked targets, the application can "know" about a much larger set of targets (e.g. that are present in the config file). You're going to have a pretty hard time fitting much more than 5 targets in the camera view anyways, while getting a high-quality view of each.
Also, it sounds like the targets you are going for here might be too simplistic, remember you need a good amount of detail in each image to track off it.
