This week we spent the time in class doing research after research on AR and the types of softwares that are in the market and what are the differences and their pros and con
For today, we've been working on the tracking attribute of metaio. Our issue at the moment is we need something that is fast in terms of loading the animation. To be able to scare people, there cannot be any room for lagging (people will get bored and it wouldn't work as well).
Therefore, cloud-based app are not suitable for this project as it would time to load and play the video.
Since Metaio is cloud-based, it is dropped from the options.
The other options that we have are Vuforia, Dfusion and ARMedia.
We've tried out D'fusion and also ARMedia.
D'fusion has a more complex and advanced feature compared to Metaio and ARMedia that it can be coded for specific functions. It is a little hard to navigate along compared to the other 2 software and I was thinking how it was not relevant to go through so much trouble to figure how it works when another software is able to do the same with little challenge.
Our plan is to model a ghost and then animate to make it seem real.
Due to this, we have decided to use ARMedia as our preferred software as it works alongside Autodesk Maya which is also our preferred 3D software.
Where can we get the plugin?
Inglobe technologies offers the free version of the software from this website: http://www.inglobetechnologies.com/en/products.php
