Please provide your development details as below;

1. SDK Version: 5.0
2. Development Environment: Unity-Android
3. Tracker/Scanner:  
4. License TypeFree / Pro-One Time Fee / Pro-Subscription / Enterprise): Free
5. Target DeviceOptional):  6

We can assist better if you attach screenshots of issues.

I am using the map manager app to create a map of the office in which I work to create an indoor navigation app, similar to the example "MAXST AR SDK 5.0 Use Cases Indoor Navigation". My issue is to create this relatively huge map, but similar in size the one in the example, with the app, when I choose to continue and extend the map scan usually the track is lost. 

This is a limitation of the app, the device or incorrect usage

If its a limitation, possible to merge when uploading in unity?

Thanks in advance.

Hello, franciscofreitas2001

 

Is your goal to implement indoor navigation? I would like to know what you intend to development.

Are you referenced to this link?

Hello,

for the reply.

My intention is to create a proof of concept for warehouse management, integrated with SAP ERP.

The idea is to have the paths and routes being displayed in AR to warehouse positions, in this positions QRCode or POIsusing visual SLAM) would be used to show the current stock of each position and similar to the example in the video the user would have screens with buttons and/or input areas to create replenishment request to the . 

I am only beginning to get used to Unity and Maxst SDK, and I know that its ambitious what I am trying to achieve, but from all SDKs that I checked, Placenote, Wikitude, Onirix, Vuforia and , MAXST is the one with all the features that I need and costly feasible​​​​​​​.

But before I focus totally in MAXST I want to be sure that is possible to create a huge map or merge or if the app is capable  to map areas bigger than 1.5 meters?

The video mentioned is very close to what I want to achieve, but the video that I mentioned first its this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyN4gbGT_lA&feature=youtu.be

The MAXST AR Map Manager app mentioned earlier is used when developing Object Tracker function with SDK version 4.0.x or lower. Beginning with SDK 4.1.x and higher, you will need to use the Visual SLAM Tool when learning maps. In addition, the Visual Slam Tool does not have the ability to merge individual maps.

The indoor AR navigation you mentioned uses the MAXST AR map editor to create a map of 3D space using the learned environment. The source POI and the destination POI are guided through the shortest route algorithm. Map Editor is a mapping program written for indoor AR navigation. It is not distributed.

Hi,

, but if I want to do a similar software for indoor navigation and since the MAXST map editor is not distributed, how can I accomplish this task? The SDK me enough features to achieve that? 

There are plans to make available in the near feature?

Thanks

No, our MAXST SDK will not route you to the Warehouse environment.
At the moment, We are researching indoor navigation technology.

Thank you
