Creating 3D image model from 2D image using AR in Android

Question

I'm new to Augment Reality and not having a compatible device to run examples provided for ARCore. I am having a few questions and want them to clear before going further as I'm getting clear about those through any mean. The app I'm working over is gonna perform the following task.

• Detect a logo from a product
• Create a 3D model of it using AR
• display the generated 3D model at the exact same surface
  Here is a sample image captured from a box. I want to display the text and logo in the 3D model.

My Questions

1. is it possible to display both logo and text as a 3D model or AR supports images only?
2. Should I use ARCore or OpenCV or any other to do the task? which one is efficient regarding time and memory to implement?

Maybe it would be a discussion-based question but I am literally unable to find a solution for it. Thanks everyone!

Answer 1

If you do not have ARCore supported device, you can try Vuforia + Unity instead. Vuforia also supports image recognition and overlay with AR. Check out this tutorial for your use case.

If you still want to use ARCore, you should check out Augmented Images feature. The challenge here if your logo has a good score to be able to work nicely for tracking and overlaying AR. You can check image quality/score with this tool.
