AR Foundation with Unity3d And Adding A Realistic Statue With Toggling of Shadows And Lights

In this video I walk you through creating a basic AR experience with AR Foundation but at the same time very realistic, we use a model from the asset store to bring a realistic statue to the augmented world of AR. Watch this video and join me in finding amazing results that honestly took my breath away when I saw how amazing the results were.

Beautiful and well explained as always, thanks! : )

Awesome I am glad you liked it Mariusz thanks for watching !

You make it look simple! Nice video.

Thank you I appreciate the feedback !

If it wasn't for you I would really lost. Thank you so much!!

Thanks for your feedback Gerard I appreciate it !

Hola, Dilmer. Tienes algún Tutorial en el que expliques cómo proyectar Sombra Realista sobre el plano? GRacias.

[@IcyShadow85]

Hey Dilmer, I have been having an issue with this type AR App. I have followed a couple of your videos that show how to build a Unity app that detects a plane and then places a model. Even following this video and downloading your project files from GitHub. I can get the app to work with the the Dragon Prefab or even with a new prefab I created using like a cube. But as soon as I swop out the Dragon Prefab with my own Prefab model (Which is an .fbx export of a Process Plant that I built in AutoDesk Inventor) the app opens and it detects the planes but as soon as I tap the screen to place the model my screen goes blue. I have tried to scale the model larger and smaller but I still can't get it to show my model and I don't know why it is doing it... Was hoping that you could give me some advice...

[@danieljones1206]

Thank you for making these!! Such a huge help. If you have time, could you make a tutorial about placing a small level or scene in AR with a timeline? I'd love to make a short AR story and I'm a little stumped.

[@dilmerv]

Awesome I like the idea and yes I will be more than happy to make an example :) thanks for the suggestion !

[@danieljones1206]

@@dilmerv oh man, incredible--can't wait!! Running through another one of your tutorials now.

[@TedBarnett197]

Any recommendation on which version of ARFoundation and ARKit we should install in the Package Manager when using your samples? The latest?

[@dilmerv]

I would say use 3.0.0 preview 3 which is what I am using in my GitHub project, you can look at all the versions I am using at github.com/dilmerv/UnityARFoundationEssentials/blob/master/Packages/manifest.json

[@TedBarnett197]

Any way to enable shadows to appear in the environment as well (i.e. so that we see the dragon's shadow on the ground)? I've tried to figure out how to make a shadow mask shader, but perhaps there is an easier way.

[@dilmerv]

There should be shadows already, are you running this scene on your device ?

[@DarkHeliosGamesInteractive]

I have a serious question I want to use my phone as a VR devise I have the gyroscope working nicely but the problem is with the movement I want to take the data from accelerometer and translate that in unity in order to move around the 3D space relative to my real body movement I can't find anything on web about how do that I know is not AR but I believe is somewhere between that if you can help with that it would be so amazing and appreciated. By the way as always amazing tutorial from you.

[@gianmarcopane2806]

Hi man, don't know if you're still trying to implement this feature in your project, btw I've bought this asset store package times ago and it works pretty well :) assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/vr-walking-running-and-jumping-googlevr-61864

[@hammadzahid2381]

can we use it for production, I mean for google play upload?

[@dilmerv]

You should be able to, however I haven’t tried it in Android !

[@supremebeme]

Hi Dilmer, have you done any tutorial on inside out tracking with AR Core + Google VR?

[@dilmerv]

Hi Paul, thanks for reaching out and currently I don't have any Android devices which is why I haven't done anything with AR Core, I do plan to change that in the near future and bring that content to the channel. Also some of my AR Foundation prototypes should work with ARCore but to be honest I haven't tested them. Thanks again for watching !

[@supremebeme]

I have Apple device and trying to figure out a way to do inside out tracking so that we can walk around 3D environment with google cardboard. It must be possible because there are many AR portal examples in App Store but how to make this work in GOOGLE VR which is compatible with iOS

[@abhinavabhi6653]

Hi Dilmer, the dragon statue which i got my asset store has pivot at its cente. So, when i build it i am getting only the head of dragon. I tried creating a empty gameobject and changing pivot point. But i am getting same result.

[@dilmerv]

Make sure to offset it by using a parent game object and adding the prefab for the parent and not the child.

[@kirtikalra3780]

Hi. There is a problem with this script when running in Unity 2019.3 version. It's saying "The type or namespace name 'PlacementObject' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)". What is missing in it.

[@dilmerv]

The placement object is my own object, did you download my GitHub project ?

[@kirtikalra3780]

@@dilmerv Yes. And I am using one single script from it. So from where the placementObject will be accessible?
