Hello,

Nice video - you nailed the solution. Appreciate your contribution to our community.

To follow-up on the web cam name issue: Why does the XML file provided by Vuforia have web cam names different from mine? This is due to how cameras identify themselves to Vuforia.

The name string is baked into the device's firmware. So, if Apple decides that with the next OS release they'll change the embedded camera name from "Built-In Eyesight" to "Display Eyesight", then Vuforia will only recognize the latter. We put a few example device names in our example webcamprofiles.xml, but this doesn't represent the name your web cam uses.

Thanks,

Vuforia Engine Support

I made a video to resolve the issue of the this thread.

Has anyone figured out a solution for this bug with the MAC IOS Built in Camera? I was getting the same error. I went into the webcamprofiles.xml and added the name suggested in the error massage. The error went away, but the camera still doesnt work. Has anyone come up with a solution?

Hi, 

Any luck with this issue? Having the same issue...

I'm working on macOS 10.13.4, unity 2018.1.6f1 personal. 

Thanks,

Jonathan

I got this from another thread that solved the issue for me:

You can try adding your webcam to the profiles.xml, the path in the error message is incorrect. You can find the file at this path: <Unity Install Directory>\Data\PlaybackEngines\VuforiaSupport\VuforiaResources

I don't know if you still need it but this worked for me on a pc - not on a mac, but it is worth a shot.

same issue here.

Webcam profiles are now in your unity folder since Vuforia is built in now.  Search around in Applications\Unity and you'll find it.
