Hi. Did I hear you say you were a Director user? (I think I recognise your name for Direct-L list). You can do this type of AR in Director using a Flash object to handle video input and map a 3d object into a scene using Valentin's AR library. I've only messed with the demos - never done

Thanks Paul ! Yes, I am a 3D Lingo veteran and I also recognize your name from Direct-L. I thought that Director will never give me any more aid in this life, but I will certainly explore the solution you suggest as a main option. Cheers, these are great news ! (if it is Director-quirk-proof,

Thanks Mark for your answer. These days I am exploring different possibilities and I found Vuforia as a very possible solution. I will also look Unity, following your advice. I have a lot of 3D programming skills inherited from 3D Lingo so maybe I can find a good path with Unity. I've

If you don't need the Pro features and can live with the standard Unity splash screen then it's free for iOS now. If those thing aren't true then yes, its several times the cost of LiveCode. Sergio Schvarstein sschvarst...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks Mark for your answer. These days I am

Is there any way or tool for creating an Augmented Reality app for iOS using LiveCode ? LiveCode is (currently at least) a truly terrible tool for building augmented reality apps - primarily because it has no functionality for handling 3d content or 3d rendering.  Even if you're doing the

Thanks Dave for your answer. Sorry for not clarifying it before, but I mean the second AR way, that is displaying a 3D model, an image or a video on a printed pattern. Actually, I have no hope that this is possible to solve with LiveCode, except with the addition of an external utility.

Thanks Brahmanathaswami ! I completely agree that all the features described can be a very promising market for developers, creating tools and also offering customization, as in the case I am needing now to solve. I also agree that mixing the software capabilities and the server space offering

Thanks Monte for your answer. As I wrote to Dave I need the other AR way, that is to glue a 3D object to a printed pattern. Nice try and also interesting to know it for another projects. Maybe you can add this kind of tools to your future set of externals. I think there's lot of market for

There is some cool technology built by the Swedish company 13th Lab called PointCloud. There is both an SDK, that might be turned in to an external, and a PointCloud browser that you control with HTML/JavaScript that should not be that hard to integrate into a LC app. http://pointcloud.io

I think Augmented Reality may have a variety of implementations. So it probably depends on what you want to do. FWIW: Our printer for Hinduism Today magazine, Quad Graphics, has just done a major sales pitch (to me) to buy their augmented reality product which is based on a mobile app

Thanks Gerry. Does anyone have a recommendation for an AR development tool for iOS ? I am Livecoder but not Xcoder. By now I'm looking Metaio, but it needs Xcoding for customization. Thanks again. __ Sergio Schvarstein __

Augmented Reality in livecode, but that does not mean that it cannot be done. It really depends on what you mean by AR. There is AR where you overlay a video feed with data based on your position and where you are looking at - this can probably be done with some maths and a way of putting
