Multiple instances of Vuforia on same machine

By DanteMarshal on Thu, 05/05/2022 - 05:39

I have two HD Pro Webcam C920 connected to my Laptop, and I'm trying to run two Vuforia UWP apps at the same time, each using one of those cameras; this can be useful in some kind of Multiplayer game on the same machine.

I can run the apps one by one, and everything works fine; each takes the camera they should've taken and works as expected; But when I want to run them both, the second instance that runs always fails to start Vuforia.

Is there a workaround for this ?

Hello,

I'm unaware of Vuforia Engine ever working for a use case where frames from multiple cameras are being fed into simultaneously a single instance of Engine SDK.

Perhaps you can better describe your use case and what issue you're trying to solve?

Kind regards,
