Track image or symbol inside of frame marker?

Hi everybody,

 

I plan to make an AR-Boardgame where the players have to place tiles into a sheet with holes for the tiles.

I have to know the position as well as the kind and orientation of each tile.

 

The approach i would like to follow is:

  • printing a frame marker around each hole to identify the position in the boardgame-coordinate-system
  • printing an image on each tile to identify it
  • then track the frame marker for the position
  • If the tile at this place is still unknown, track the area only inside of the frame marker to identify the tile

 

Is this possible with vuforia?

I think I would need to take a picture from the camera frame and mask everything exept the inner part of the tile. Then I would need to track the symbol inside of that image.

But I am not sure, if i can use a generated image rather than using the camera input with vuforia.
