Scan additional AR markers
Use this method to bring a model into alignment wherever AR markers exist in the model.
Prerequisites
- The model is loaded.
- AR markers created in the VisualLive plug-in exist in the model.
Scan an AR marker in a placed model
Move to a printed AR marker.
Airtap the Scan button (beside the Load Files button).
Scan the printed AR marker. For accurate alignment, your camera must be within 12 and 18 inches of the marker.
- Scan the QR code on the AR Marker. This loads the marker's data.
- Scan the full AR Marker to properly place the model.
When the marker is adequately scanned, a virtual compass overlays the paper marker.
Continue to scan the paper marker from the front and the side to align the virtual compass. Any slight skewing will impact the model more as you move further from the alignment location. Check that:
- The compass arrow is aligned with the N arrow on the printed marker.
- The center of the compass is aligned with the + sign on the printed marker.
- The compass is lying flat on the printed marker. To check this, stand to the side of the marker and look at it.
Airtap Place Model.
The model moves into alignment. The marker in the model is visible and aligned with the marker on the site.
