AR objects are sticking to real objects in camera

Hi, We are creating a simple project in Unity with Vuforia.

We have an image-Target. After tracking is done, an object appear at left side far away from the target. The user have to turn his camera and find the object. After that he can walk to the object and walk around. (The target is not in camera view). We use extended tracking.

And everything was perfect on Sony xperia xz Premium and on Xiaomi Redmi note 7

On other devices (Redmi note 8 pro, Vivo v17, samsung galaxy a40) we have an issue. If somebody move his hand or body in front of the camera (the real person or object), the AR object sticks to it and moves with the real person in the view of camera. So, at the moment, we can manipulate with our hands in front of the camera with the AR object. And we don't need it. Because, if some body walks accidentally in front of the camera, the AR object sticks to them and everything is ruined.

Can somebody, please, tell us, what does affects the AR objects?

Thank you

Webcam and Database Issues in Vuforia Configuration

Hi I am a new user of Vuforia and Unity. I am trying to create a very simple AR apps. Just like the AR tutorials showing on Youtube, but I have been suffering from two issues for more than 3 weeks. Tried to read many online forums or tutorials but still cannot find any clear solution.

1. My Microsoft LifeCam HD is working with another application like Adobe Animate Character, but Camera Device Option in Vuforia configuration cannot detect my webcam in Windows 10 v1803. It only can detect my built-in TV Anolog Capture.  I have tried the following methods, but still NOT WORKING at all. a. Tried both to install Unity 2018.2.3f1 and Vuforia 7-2-24 in C drive (OS drive) or another drive b. Tried to create Plugins folder in Assets folder and then drag and drop webcamprofiles from Programs Files folder into Plugins folder. Then edit the xml file. c. Even tried to copy and paste webcamproiles.xml into WebcamProfiles folder and then edit too. (like Assets > Editor > QCAR > WebcamProfiles) d. Even tried disable my TV Anolog Capture, still help nothing. This issue only happens with Windows 10 platform, but totally fine with MacOS platform. Why? What am I missing to do?

2. Cannot find Database/Dataset in Vuforia Configuration neither Windows 10 nor MacOS , but only this error message, “Databases will be automatically loaded and activated if its TrackingBehaviour is enabled on scene load.” As newbie, I really don’t understand what I should do. I find no online tutorial clearly help users to solve this issue.

Wondering that the version of Unity I installed is wrong or not? Should I go back to Unity 5 with 32-bit? Anyone can kindly give me a hand, please?
