In a hurry? Download our sample marker (20cm) as PDF, Unity Package, jpeg, or .patt!
Augmented Reality Marker generator for libraries such as Vuforia, ARToolkit, and AR.js.
This tool
- Runs on the browser (Tested on Chrome 67+). Try it
- Creates a random, high-fidelity tracking marker for several tracking technologie (Vuforia, ARToolkit, AR.js, ...)
- Supports selecting custom foreground image and background image - yes, you can use this tool to create a pdf for your existing markers!
- Guarantees 5-start trackers on Vuforia. It uses tracking.js to generate highly trackable markers
- Produces a PDF with custom marker dimensions (defaults to 8x8 cm) to make printing fast and easy
- Generates .patt file for ARToolKit and AR.js
I wish that there was a way of telling how the marker's quality degrade over time. I also wish that there was a way of generating a set of markers that are not similar to each other.
If I ever have time, I would
- Use three.js to render a marker at different distances and angles
- Use AR.js to assess detection confidence at these different distances and angles
- Use tracking.js to see how the number of detected features change over angles and distance
Did you use this tool in your research? Let other knows that it exist by citing it!
