Google Cardboard SDK for Augmented Reality?

Is it possible / a good choice to use Google Cardboard SDK to realise AR?I Only have found VR related things with that SDK. What is the best framework for AR? Is Vuforia a good way to go? Im trying to write an AR app (for Android) which detects/scans room numbers at my university and shows the schedule of this room (which class / time / which prof...) Thanks for help!

There is an alpha version of DroidScript (JavaScript IDE for Android) available which supports augmented reality for Google Cardboard. There is also a sample on the DroidScript forum that demonstrates Aruco marker detection (Augmented reality). So I guess you could hack something together quite easily if you ask the developers for the latest version.

Google Cardboard SDK is made for VR, hence not the best option for AR. There are SDKs built specifically for AR. Check out this comparison
