Working with Unity

VisionLib's SDK for Unity is the easiest way to get started, because you can quickly setup tracking with VisionLib and use the Unity engine for rendering and application logic.

Getting Started

We've prepared step-by-step tutorials on how to use VisionLib with Unity. To get started, we recommend this quick-start guide.

• UnitySDK Quick Start
• Build VisionLib Unity Projects
• Model Tracking in Unity

The ModelTrackingSetup example scene can be used to tailor the tracking parameters to a specific tracking model and save the results in a configuration file. A separate tracking setup scene specific to HoloLens 2 is also included with the MRTK example scenes.

• Using the Model Tracking Setup Scene
• Using the Model Tracking Setup Scene on HoloLens 2

Further tutorials describing how to use the VisionLib SDK can be found here:

• Poster Tracking in Unity
• Tracker Events in Unity
• Using Commands and Tasks
• VisionLib Tracking on HoloLens
• VisionLib Tracking on Magic Leap 2
• Universal Render Pipeline Support

Background + Trouble Shooting

The illusion of augmented reality relies on the effect of precisely superimposed visuals within the augmented views. That said, camera calibration and getting core tracking parameters right is essential. For this, we recommend also looking into tracking essentials:

• Camera Calibration
• Setting an Init Pose
• Understanding Tracking

Update: For more trouble shooting, have a look at the FAQ section.

In order to safely update to a newer version of the VisionLib SDK, see our release notes and follow the relevant migration guides.
