Tracker Coordinate System

By recognizing and tracking the provided markers, you can augment images, 3D objects or videos especially when there are plenty of targets. 8,192 markers will be provided which were developed by MAXST itself.

>MarkerTrackerViewController.swift

var cameraDevice:MasCameraDevice = MasCameraDevice()
    var trackingManager:MasTrackerManager = MasTrackerManager()

Start / Stop Tracker

After setting the markers, refer to the following code to start / stop the tracker.

>MarkerTrackerViewController.swift

@objc func resumeAR() {
        trackingManager.start(.TRACKER_TYPE_MARKER)
        openCamera()
}

@objc func pauseAR() {
        trackingManager.stopTracker()
        cameraDevice.stop()
}

Use Tracking Information

You can get marker information in 'MasTrackable'. Marker Number is setted function 'getId' in 'MasTrackable'.

>MarkerTrackerViewController.swift

override func glkView(_ view: GLKView, drawIn rect: CGRect) {
    ...
    let trackingState:MasTrackingState = trackingManager.updateTrackingState()
        let result:MasTrackingResult = trackingState.getTrackingResult()
        
        let backgroundImage:MasTrackedImage = trackingState.getImage()
        let backgroundProjectionMatrix:matrix_float4x4 = cameraDevice.getBackgroundPlaneProjectionMatrix()
        
        glEnable(GLenum(GL_DEPTH_TEST))
        
        let projectionMatrix:matrix_float4x4 = cameraDevice.getProjectionMatrix()
        
        
        if let cameraQuad = backgroundCameraQuad {
            cameraQuad.draw(image:backgroundImage, projectionMatrix: backgroundProjectionMatrix)
        }
        
        let trackingCount:Int32 = result.getCount()
        
        var recogMarkerID:String = "Recognized Marker ID : "
        if trackingCount > 0 {
            for i in stride(from: 0, to: trackingCount, by: 1) {
                let trackable:MasTrackable = result.getTrackable(i)
                
                recogMarkerID = recogMarkerID + trackable.getId() + ", "
                textureCube.setProjectionMatrix(projectionMatrix: projectionMatrix)
                textureCube.setPoseMatrix(poseMatrix: trackable.getPose())
                textureCube.setTranslation(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, z: -0.05)
                textureCube.setScale(x: 1.0, y: 1.0, z: 0.1)
                textureCube.draw()
            }
        }
    ...
}

Set Target Marker

Once you enter the target marker size (m) and call the addTrackerData, you can track the marker in real scale. Refer to the following code to set a target marker.

>MarkerTrackerViewController.swift

trackingManager.addTrackerData("{\"marker\":\"scale\",\"all\":1.3, \"id0\" : 0.5, \"id1\" : 0.5, \"id3\" : 0.4, \"id10\" : 1.5}")
trackingManager.loadTrackerData()

Change Tracking Mode

4 Tracking Modes of Marker Tracker:

NORMAL_TRACKING, ENHANCED_TRACKING, JITTER_REDUCTION_ACTIVATION, JITTER_REDUCTION_DEACTIVATION

  • NORMAL_TRACKING: Default Setting. Traceable multiple target image.
trackingManager.setTrackingOption(.NORMAL_TRACKING)
  • ENHANCED_TRACKING: This feature tracks the marker intensively that recognizes the first.
trackingManager.setTrackingOption(.ENHANCED_TRACKING)
  • JITTER_REDUCTION_ACTIVATION: Jitter reduction.
trackingManager.setTrackingOption(.JITTER_REDUCTION_ACTIVATION)
  • JITTER_REDUCTION_DEACTIVATION: Disable the jitter reduction option.
trackingManager.setTrackingOption(.JITTER_REDUCTION_DEACTIVATION)
