Question by MorphusOne1 · Aug 14, 2017 at 02:45 PM · movement mobile augmented-reality positioning tracking

Markerless AR

Hi Guys,

Just a vague question here, more to get direction than anything...

I want to create an AR App, easy, done.

Now here's where it gets interesting...

I want to track the phones locations from its starting position which is set in the App.

alt text

So for example I have a table that's 1 meter high by 2 meters long and .5 meters wide. In the exact center if that table I have target.

In game I have modeled that exact same table and placed where I wish the experience to start.

So now when the individual starts the application/presses a button the scene/game begins but translates the movement of the phone in relation to the starting point to the main camera.

Where do I begin?

I've got all sorts of examples, apps I've made myself but can't find any reference to this idea?

Is it even possible?

Any thoughts, ideas, insights are as always greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Chris
