@scripzero Because iphone 6/6+ not supported devices. unity's current version is 2017.3 pack 1 available. After Unity 2017.3 PACK 2 published, you can use the ground features.

Hello scripzero,

Due to the nature of the technology, Ground Plane may not be able to provide 6DoF tracking in all environments. This article includes some information for an ideal Ground Plane environment: https://library.vuforia.com/articles/Training/ground-plane-guide.html



Specifically, the following is relevant to this issue:

Ground Plane utilizes images from the device camera to understand the basic geometry of your environment. Therefore it is necessary to stage Ground Plane experiences in settings that enable the camera to accurately capture the details of the surroundings.

Recommendations:

• Stable lighting conditions

• Moderate lighting - not too bright or too dark

• Avoid glare and dark shadows

• Surface details help to reveal geometry and improve accuracy and performance



The Ground Plane feature will continue to improve with future Vuforia releases. APIs that provide information on the tracking quality are coming in the future. These can be used to determine the quality of the area you are scanning and allow you to advise the user of what steps they can take to improve their experience.

Thanks,

Vuforia Support
