Cameras not enabling in standalone

Topic solved

I've got Vuforia working in Editor just fine and I can even build an app to my mobile device (Android, Nexus 6) and it works as expected just as it did in the Editor. The problem that I'm having now is that when I try to build a standalone application for Windows my webcam never enables. This just leaves me looking at my camera's clear color. 

 

As a probably related side-note, I installed an android emulator for my PC and installed the APK to that VM (using the same APK that was confirmed to work on the Nexus 6) and it was having the same issue as Windows standalone. 

 

Anyone got any hints for me on this one?

Vuforia doesn't support Android Emulator or Desktop OS platforms as a build target.

I am having the same problem. I am uploading the apk to my Android phone, so it's not using an emulator. When I run it on the phone, I get the camera view, but nothing happens when I point it at the target image.

 

Any ideas?

Hi dm3d, here it says that vuforia support windows OS:

So I don't really understand why we have this blackscreen when building on windows with Unity and Vuforia.

Hello,

Vuforia supports Windows UWP tablet devices with embedded cameras, and HoloLens: https://www.vuforia.com/Devices

Thanks.

Hi, Pablo,

Is there any solution regarding the black screen?

PS: I have an integrated camera, I work, but when compiling and creating the EXE does not work, only black screen
