Black Screen on Vuforia SDK 0.5 and Google Cardboard SDK using Unity

By lunchboxav on Mon, 08/03/2015 - 05:42

Hi,

I'm trying to build the arvr sample in Unity that comes with Vuforia SDK 0.5 for my Android phone.. I integrated Google Cardboard SDK. However, when I try to debug the resulting app, I can only see black screen. This may seems that I didn't get the video stream from my Android device. I looked around and did the Vuforia SDK and Google Cardboard SDK integration, but it still doesn't work.

Any suggestions?

Cheers

Here is a complete guide to achieve Vuforia 5.0.5 integration with Cardboard 0.5.0:

Check that your device can run with Cardboard SDK (without Vuforia);

Ooops, my bad, I accidentally uses an older Google Cardbord SDK version. I'm using 0.5, and it's working smoothly.

Pls close this thread ;)

Have you tried following all the steps in the Google Cardboard Integration tutorial? I ended up following that and I had no problem. Make sure that you've positioned the Google Cardboard main prefab in the same position as the ARCamera prefab. Also, don't forget to connect them both.

I also had checked only the cardboard sdk demo on my galaxy s4 and it works fine.
