Capture an image and fire an event

By axoloteDeAccion on Wed, 06/20/2012 - 17:04

Hi. I have been browsing the code all day and still I haven't got a clue on where I can do this in the ImageTargets example so that instead of rendering a teapot I get an AlertDialog on Android pop up when capturing an image. Is this possible? Thanks!

Re: Capture an image and fire an event

See this thread for some detailed code snippets that show a Toast (brief message) when a target is found: http://ar.qualcomm.at/node/2000032 You'll be using the JNI (Java Native Interface) to call a Java method from native.

Re: Capture an image and fire an event

Actually this does not work. I've tried what was posted on the thread you linked and nothing has happened don't know why. Even the person posting there admited to it not working and finding a solution, but not remembering what it was. Is this the correct framework to do this sort of thing?

Re: Capture an image and fire an event

I just grabbed a fresh copy of the 1.0.0 ImageTargets sample and made these changes. It works as expected. Can you tell us what sort of errors you are seeing? Try adding some LOG lines to make sure the java method is being called correctly from native, etc. - Kim

Hi, it is interesting, but it can be done on Unity plugin??? Not exacly this: but when marker is visible -> run gui element.
