Скачать или смотреть Vuforia AR using image targets (Unity)

The Augmented Reality boom is coming! Google's AR Core is working with Apple's AR kit to make a combined cross platform API that supports a wide variety of devices (right now AR Core only supports Samsung 8 and Google Pixel phones, while Apple only supports their high tier devices).
In the meantime the only viable cross platform option is Vuforia. Right now it only supports AR with a real world targets such as an image like in this case or an object such as a box or cylinder.
Preparing such targets is tedious and forcing the user to do any kind of setup risky. The good news is that AR Core and AR Kit already support ground plane detection and Vuforia is about to release this new feature in the next Unity update.

This was just an introduction to AR and I'll definately do something more when Vuforia supports ground planes.

As seen in the video there is an image target, in this case a playing card, that when detected spawns a soldier or a zombie. The zombie chases the soldier if he is close enough and the soldier shoots the zombie if he has a clear shot.

Just for fun I also extended the transition shader I wrote for my past project. Now it uses a multicolor mask and depending on the rgb values it transitions the screen pixels in a certain way.

And for some reason I also invested a lot of time creating particle effects and looking for sound effects. It turned out quite nicely though!
