Hello, I'm trying to make an augmented reality application about chemistry using Vuforia and Unity3D. I will physically have a big image of periodic table of elements and some small spherical objects, and I don't know how to determine which element is covered by the sphere when i put it on the periodic table.
Does anyone have an idea or has done this already?
I will next associate that chemical element with the sphere.

Hello @Sorincr,
I'd like to also suggest that you consider the Image Targets add-on feature called Virtual Buttons:
What I'm not clear about is if the feature has enough sensitivity to detect a single element being covered. We'll ask the development team for recommendations about this for your use case and respond back.
Thanks,

I also thought of this option as an alternative. Thanks a lot for your answer! BR!

Hi,
Depending on how big the image of the periodic table is, one option would be to move the spheres above each corresponding element.
My advice is go trough our training materials here. (Getting Started with Vuforia Engine in Unity)
Thank you,

Hello @Sorincr,

Good luck!
