ccm-augmented-reality's Issues

Unhide the Status Bar for Android builds

We need to not run the app in fullscreen when it's embedded in the native Android app. The ability to show the Status Bar was removed in Unity. Look into implementing this in code.

Hello World with Vuforia

Have a basic setup of an environment in unity that has vuforia and a single image target working .

• vuforia developer license
• unity set up to use vuforia
• single image target
• single 3d model

Look into ground plane tracking

If the image targets are on walls, it might be better to use the ground to place 3D models.

Alternatively, rotate model prefabs so they face the right way.

Find a way to identify if you are tapping on the asset or anywhere else on the screen

Attach 3D model to dynamically created Image Target GameObject at runtime

Populate UI overlay with Content information received from native Android app

Instantiate UI overlay implemented in #19 with Content data received from native Android app (#22).

Bundle AR and android into a single app

We had some trouble trying to bundle AR and android app together. Need to do some POC to resolve this.

Call newCollectionEvent() on native Android when a target is collected

Re-use the same instance of the 3D model for Inactive image targets

Get Experience data from native Android

We need to use the AndroidJavaObject class to receive data from the native Android app.

Test that it can be parsed correctly.

Android issue: Comic-Con-Museum/ccm-android#46

Find a way to attach identification information with beacons

The idea is to be able to identify unique information about beacons to fetch additional data from backend in runtime.

Populate resources to the experience(model) from backend

Implement callback to native app once datasets are loaded

Finalize design of overlay when AR model is tapped

Notify the backend about a collected item.

Set up Functionality to Update the Image Target Database Dynamically

Locally for now. Use backend service once it's up.

Categoric specific UI experience for AR

On-screen back button

Unity implementation of UI overlay that pops up when an AR model is tapped

Blocked by #18

@owencmiller I know you worked on UI overlays at Codechella. Do you want to pick this one up?

Write script to automate the Android build process

It would be convenient to be able to generate the AAR library via script.

Figure out build process for Android library.

Create GameObject dynamically for different Image Targets

Pass information from Android app to AR project.

Dynamically utilize the model for different experience
