Hello,
I've just installed long awaited Unity patch 2017.3.0p2 which contains Vuforia 7.0.43. When I compiled Ground Plane Demo from the Asset Store on my Samsung S8 it looks quite disappointing. Astronaut model is very shaky, it's not willing to stay in one place on the floor and it's off the scale. It certainly doesn't utilize ARcore main features like surface detection eg. on table.
Same demo on iPad with ARkit support works flawless.
Is there any way to improve Ground Plane functionality on Android devices that support ARcore? Otherwise I will have to switch to laborious ARcore + ARkit development.
Regards, Masch
I can confirm this
I can confirm this disappointment. It appears that the only improvement is that hit test works with non-ARKit iOS devices (but tracking of pose never happens to anchor ground-plane). However Android is still not supported it appears. The Pixel 2 XL wont even place ground plane indicator.

Hi,
Same with Galaxy S7, Astronaut anchoring seems to fail and looks like floating

OK,
OK,
The astronaut sample seems to works fine first time access, first time positioning, when click on reset button and change to other ground plane or position start to fail and floating.
If I close the app clean the android app stack and open again back to works fine.
This is happening for me as
This is happening for me as well. Using a Samsung Galaxy S7, the first hit test is always fine whether the lighting conditions are good or not. The second will break it.
I put my message here too,
I put my message here too, new Vuforia user.
Vuforia is working perfectly with the S8 on tracked images, not the problem here.
I think this post is saying,
I think this post is saying, as of right now, there is no ARCore inside of Vuforia (even with supported devices), and on any Android it's all a custom solution from Vuforia.
They should really make this more clear, as it confused most people here.
Hope we’re able to have some
Hope we’re able to have some answer on this soon.. would be great to know if it’s a problem Vuforia knows about and are going to fix it..

Hi, it's been 6 months since the last post. Is there still no update on this issue? The S8 is a major flagship and not supporting it would be very difficult for us.
