Think if someone in real life waved their hand and hit the 3D object in AR, how would I detect that? I basically want to know when something crosses over the AR object so I can know that something “hit” it and react.
Can this be done? If so how?
It could have probably been done with Tango (because there are built-in depth sensors), but I don’t see how it would be done with ARKit or ARCore, since there isn’t actually actually any depth-sensing going on…
A workaround would be to have it to image detection on your hand at a specified distance, tell it the size/measurement, and then as the hand got bigger or smaller, the scale could approximate the depth/distance/z-buffer…
But I haven’t actually tried anything like that, not sure how doable (doable, maybe, but probably not built-in or easy) with these single-camera AR SDKs…
Thanks for the response. I have no clue how to even start with something like that but I’m assuming that image detection is probably not fast enough to detect quick moving images. I thinking my idea is not feasible at the moment with current tech.
