Hey

So here is the situation

There is a room, There is a 2.5m pilar in the centre. On the pillar I want to place a box, with each side having an image of anchor - the same?

I want then to glue my 3d model to that cube centre/anchor locations. I'd like to be able to walk around the pillar in the room & always track the same position for my 3d objects.

How can I do this? As far as I can tell each anchor I ever saw was 1 sided-flat image. What would be the way for a 4 way anchor?

What would be my best bet?

TIA Regards Dariusz

I think you should look at ARObjectAnchors for this. I'm not sure how well it will work if each side of the box has the same image, so if you could use different images that would be ideal.

I tried using it. Initially using the app that creates the scan from apple example. Sadly after 1-2m the tracking was getting lost :- (

The Object Scanning developer sample regularly removes the ARObjectAnchor in testing mode in order to test re-detection mode from different angles. Hence, it would be expected that you can't detect the object any more in a distance of 1-2 meters.

In a real app, the anchor would persist at the location where it was initially detected (of course assuming that world tracking is working normally).
