Hello! Can you add the Vuforia SDK for Unity function to an external USB camera (for Android smartphones) and the camera mirroring function (for Device Type in Phone mode+Viewer).

Hi,

We deprecated the Phone mode+Viewer I believe starting with 8.5.

In regards to you scenario, you could use the external camera feature to connect a USB camera to an Android phone, more info here: https://library.vuforia.com/tools/driver-framework.html

The idea is to use simple inexpensive AR glasses with a smartphone, where the screen is reflected to the eyes through a mirror. The image of objects is perceived by the front camera, or by an external portable camera (mounted on glasses)where it is necessary to mirror the camera.
