Loading large datasets in Android

September 27, 2017 - 8:38am #1

Hello,

It has come to our attention that changes in the behavior of the Android Build Tools (starting with version 25? we are unclear on the exact number) can affect the performance of device database loading times of the Vuforia SDK.

For smaller databases (less than 10 images), the effect may not be noticeable. However, for larger databases, the time to load can take several seconds or longer.

Load dataset from Android split binary (obb)

August 2, 2017 - 8:32am #1

A previous thread has described a few different approaches to handling an Android app that exceeds 100mb in size: https://developer.vuforia.com/forum/faq/unity-how-can-i-handle-large-android-apps

This thread will provide a small example of how to load a dataset from the obb file when using the split binary option.

Vuforia Rendering Primitives

October 11, 2016 - 7:40pm #1

Attention native Android and iOS developers:

We’re updating our rendering API to allow for increased flexibility, better performance and easier integration of Vuforia with other rendering engines.

What does this mean for you?

Issues with permissions (Android Java)

October 8, 2019 - 6:13am #1

Hi,

I've been having issues trying to get the most basic part of the SDK working.

I'm running on an android 5.1.1 device and the basic samples load fine, however when i try to initalize the SDK with

Vuforia.init()

(after calling Vuforia.setInitParameters(Activity, int, string) with the correct flags and test license key) it fails with error code -1 (INIT_ERROR), and I get this line in the logcat:
