How to import a 3D model with animation

By crybaby555 on Wed, 06/20/2012 - 17:11

I have learnt almost all the api and demo on your website. Im a developer on iOS with xCode4 using the Vuforia tool. But I still have a question about how to import my 3D models with animation into my project and display it when detecting my trackers on the screen. And is there any requirement for the formats of my animation 3D models?

Vuforia does not provide support for importing or rendering 3D models. Rather, it hooks you up to OpenGL ES for this purpose.

Further to Kim's comment - you can also take a look at Phil Rideout's book "iPhone 3D Programming" and Jeff Lamarche's blog which are two good resources for OpenGL, 3D Models and textures on iOS.
