Great comperison!! thanks!!! I'm looking for a solution for a system that will combine AR and QR. The System Requirements are: 1. scan qr 2. open cam to record (web, ios,android) 3. after record movie, confirm it. 4. scan the same qr and drow the movie been taken before. 5. point to a print and show the movie as ar. the system should work with a lot of QR, prints and movies. Doe's anyone have a suggestion with wich engine to work with? Thanks in advance.Posted 2013-10-15 00:24:35 by lets play

@Geoffroy Lesage
Thanks for your suggestion. I've added it to the comparison. Do not hesitate to fill all the missing info.Posted 2013-07-15 22:37:31 by Seralo -

Hi, Might I suggest PRAugmentedReality? Its for iOS and open source. But it seems you've reached the limit of cells you can have... its up to you if you want to hide some other cells... (Maybe Use examples or Blackberry as they only have 2 values each) https://github.com/promet/PRAugmentedRealityPosted 2013-07-15 17:58:04 by Geoffroy Lesage

Why did you remove the Unity support column? It was very useful. Can you reinsert it?Posted 2013-07-11 17:31:55 by Rocco Paladino

It works great on Desktop, Web, and Mobile. The latest version which can be used with Unity is more awesome!Posted 2013-01-29 03:49:52 by fathahnoor

voted for Qualcomm Vuforia ( Vote)Easy to use; connects quickly to UnityPosted 2012-09-25 10:28:07 by Tim Sullivan

-
Extremely lightweight, fast, angle-robust; connects quickly and easily to Unity. Imperfect rating solely due to necessity of having black border around marker.Posted 2012-09-25 10:26:38 by Tim Sullivan

Nils, instead of creating new comparison for versioning you should use the snapshot/backup feature. (If you make a new view, cell values is modified in previous comparisons too)Posted 2012-09-07 22:13:41 by Seralo

I've reused MindSpaceSolutions criteria so that values are already filled.Posted 2012-09-07 22:05:44 by Seralo

MindSpaceSolutions - I went ahead and added the comparisons.Posted 2012-09-07 16:52:20 by Nils Davis

MIndSpaceSolutions - I thought Editor was already public - oops. I have changed that setting. See if you can add your changes to this table now. NilsPosted 2012-09-07 16:48:41 by Nils Davis
