Trying to add AR elements to a tracked camera - black screen

 

I'm trying out the example provided in this post: https://aximmetry.com/learn/tutorials/for-aximmetry-de-users/using-tracked-cameras-and-augmented-reality-with-an-unreal-scene/?_ga=2.234039966.120180601.1666268697-2071548711.1665752700#augmented-realityhttps://aximmetry.com/learn/tutorials/for-aximmetry-de-users/using-tracked-cameras-and-augmented-reality-with-an-unreal-scene/?_ga=2.234039966.120180601.1666268697-2071548711.1665752700#augmented-reality.

I can get the tracked camera bit (first section) to work, but am unsure how to proceed. Am I supposed to add an "AR with tracked camera" camera to that UE level or is the Augmented Reality part of that article meant to be instead of the "Camera Tracking" section?

Thanks for your help.

The black screen in the aximetry ar camera project, the camera signal cannot enter the output port, the 4.2 version is normal, and the 5.0 version is black

Hi,

This sections "Add an AR tracked camera. Aximmetry / Add Camera / AR with tracked camera"
Refers to this camera:

When selecting this menu option, the AR camera will be automatically added to your currently opened Map. And also the Camera's resources are added to your project's content folder:

Also, make sure that you did this for every object you want to see: Place virtual objects in the scene and tag them with the “AximmetryAR” tag. Only tagged objects will show up in the final image

Warmest regards,

All settings are correct, but the ar is always black covering the camera screen. I use the 4.0 version, which is normal. Please check to see if there is a bug somewhere. It is urgent and urgently used in our project.

I did exactly as described by Eifert@Aximmetry and added the "AR with tracked camera". Adding a simple cone and adding the tag AximmetryAR to it. All looks good, I cook the content and Aximmetry Composer shows this:

If I switch the Unreal Scene in Composer to LiveSync and hit Play I do get the proper picture.

Hi,

Sadly, if you see this:

Then it is a bug in the current version.

You need to turn on  the Virtual Production Utilities plugin, more on it here: https://my.aximmetry.com/post/2280-have-problems-with-ar-in-aximmetry-5 

Warmest regards,
