I'm able to get the Vuforia sample apps running on the Moverio BT-200, but I would like to disable the camera image and only display the AR overlay content. The screens on the glasses are semi-transparent so it is best not to display an image of the real world, which the user can already see. What's the best way to disable the camera image and instead have a black background with RGB intensity set to 0?

Which SDK version are you using? For Unity, see: https://developer.vuforia.com/forum/faq/unity-how-can-i-disable-camera-video-background-rendering
Keep in mind that the augmentation's registration is going to be incorrect w/o video background rendering.

Thanks for the link. I am using the Android SDK 2.8.8. Maybe this can only be done with Unity?
I do realize a positioning adjustment will be needed since the video background doesn't directly match the user's vision. I'm hoping the tracking will work well enough though.

Try the same approach using the video background config class..

Here's a script I wrote that will hide the background videofeed. You create a new C# script called "HideARVideoBackGround" then copy the following into it. Attach this to the AR camera. You just click on or off this component in the inspector.

Hello,

I also did the same steps that you have posted (of creating two cameras) and attaching them to ARCamera.

There is no tool in the standard Vuforia SDK to correctly align the views. But alignment is not your major problem.

The calibration process, removing of the background and stereoscope are neatly provided by Vuforia. Read this post:
