Actually, look about 1:15 into the youtube video; all the graphics disappear when no markers are fully visible.

We could also just assume the camera doesn’t move when the marker is lost, but that tends not to work well.

Hello,

I am wondering if you can tell me how you were able to keep the dog on the screen when the marker was not in view of the camera?
Thanks!

Hello,

Great stuff! Would you ever consider putting this on a social networking site for pets?
I am a relatively new site, trying to bolster traffic and content.

Many thanks, Mike

Are you able to release a version now that the 3Gs is out?

First of all, this is awesome!

Did you guys use the Artoolkit or the Studierstube tracker?
Or did you write your own code?
And if so is it open to other developers under any kind of license to play with?

Sincerely, Vincent.

Hi Greg, how’s life? But, you’ll have to do without G1 games from us. Android doesn’t cut the mustard for real AR (as opposed to that ill-registered, wobbly text on top of video junk) since you can’t do native marker tracking, etc. I’ve heard they are adding some methods of doing JNI, which would be nice; perhaps even a JIT?

When this happens, and someone builds real game engines like Unity3D for the G1, let me know!
