Hi!
I'm working on a Hololens app in which I will have a plane covering the whole floor of a large space. The problem I'm having is with drifting due to the large area when walking from one end to the other. Is there some easy way to implement several image targets for the same object throughout the room, so that the position of the plane can be adjusted and alligned correctly upon looking at a new image target far a way from the initial one? Maybe there's some other way to deal with this effectively, sorry if my explanation is really bad...
Thanks!

Best regards

Thanks a lot for the help @medabit! Just one last thing, is the translation and rotation in the XML script needed or maybe editable from unity? I want to be able to rotate and move around my targets inside the unity editor.
Thank you!

Hi @medabit,
Had a look at that and I seemed to get the hang of it, however, there are some strange things that I don't understand.

I tried the above but my database is failing to load after making the modifications in the xml.
