Circle detection (AR Foundation)

Unity Engine
1

Hi all,

Just a quick question,

Is it possible to somehow set up shape detection rather than plane detection? I want to be able to instantiate AR objects on detection of a car tyre (so obviously picking up a circle). Using AR Foundation/Unity 2019.2.11f

Thanks!

Hey! Did you manage to find a solution to this? I tried using Augmented Images for this, using a png picture with transparent background but it doesn’t seem to work well.

There is no easy solution to this kind of problem. If you want to augment one specific kind of car tire, I would recommend using ARKit Object Tracking, AR Foundation supports it.
But if you want to augment ANY kind of tire, this problem is non-trivial and would require writing a custom computer vision algorithm.
