Object tracking samples

The Object Tracking sample demonstrates AR Foundation Object tracking functionality. You can open this sample in Unity from the Assets/Scenes/ObjectTracking folder.

Tip

AR Foundation samples are supported on platforms that support the demonstrated feature. To check whether a feature is supported on your chosen platform, refer to the Platform support table and the documentation for that feature.

Requirements

Object tracking is supported by ARKit only. This sample requires iOS 12 or newer.

To use this sample, you must have a physical object the device can recognize as described in Reference objects.

Reference objects

To use object tracking you must use a reference object library. You can Use Unity's sample reference objects or Create your own reference objects. To learn more about reference objects, refer to Object tracking

Use Unity's sample reference objects

The sample's reference object library is built using two reference objects. The sample includes printable templates which you can print on 8.5×11 inch paper and fold into a cube and cylinder. You can find these printable templates in the Assets/Scenes/ObjectTracking/Printable Templates folder.

Create your own reference objects

You can scan your own objects and add them to the XRReferenceObjectLibrary. Refer to Create a reference object library to understand how to create your own reference library.

Object tracking scene

The Object tracking scene detects a 3D object from a set of reference objects in an XRReferenceObjectLibrary.
