Hi!
Where can I download your demo of ArtoolkitPlus + Ogre3D? I can’t find it
Thanks in advance!
I’m working on my website : the demo will be released in a few days, sorry…
Hi man,
I’m trying to compile your ARToolkit Ogre3D application. First of all I get the following errors during compiling my application with the artoolkitplus headers:
>::executeMultiMarkerPoseEstimator(ARToolKitPlus::ARMarkerInfo*, int, ARToolKitPlus::ARMultiMarkerInfoT*)’:
/media/data/00_coding/AR-Demo/src/../include/ARToolKitPlus_impl/TrackerImpl.cpp:581: undefined reference to `rppSupportAvailabe()’
TrackingSystem.o: In function `ARToolKitPlus::TrackerImpl::executeSingleMarkerPoseEstimator(ARToolKitPlus::ARMarkerInfo*, float*, float, float (*) [4])’:
/media/data/00_coding/AR-Demo/src/../include/ARToolKitPlus_impl/TrackerImpl.cpp:556: undefined reference to `rppSupportAvailabe()’
TrackingSystem.o: In function `ARToolKitPlus::TrackerImpl::arInitCparam(ARToolKitPlus::Camera*)’:

TrackingSystem.o: In function `ARToolKitPlus::TrackerImpl::checkImageBuffer()’:
and so on and so on…what did I wrong?
my second question is, for what are you using openframeworks? I think you are using http://muonics.net/school/spring05/videoInput/ that library to get access to the webcam or?
hopefully you can give me some informations. btw. I’m working under ubuntu 9.10
cheers

@David : These errors are caused because you are not linking with ArToolKitPlus Project. I can’t help you that much with the linking error as I’m working with Visual Studio.
You are right about openframeworks, I’ve just been using the version of this lib that is packaged in the FAT version of openframeworks.
Good to see someone trying to use this
hi
Very nice project. How do I do without the ID marker. hiro markers such as, for example, and kanji. If you’ll be very happy to help
@rem: sorry for the delay… been busy with other project.
To use template marker you have to use a TrackerSingleMarker and use addPattern() method. I didn’t used them so it’s all I can told you.. Hope that can help you.
Hi,
First of all, thank you very much for sharing that amazing work.
I’ve tried to compile the ArToolKitPlusDemo but I’m facing some linking errors as follow:

I’m using Ogre 1.7.1 and Visual Studio Express 2005 sp1.
I downloaded OpenFrameworks 0.0.6 Visual 2008 Fat from http://www.openframeworks.cc/versions/preRelease_v0.06/of_preRelease_v0.06_win32_VS2008_FAT.zip
I uncompressed but I couldn’t find the folder “ofVideoInput”. But I found another one: \Dependencies\of_preRelease_v0.06_windows_VS2008_FAT\libs\videoInput\include\videoInput.h
And there’s a pre-compiled lib: \Dependencies\of_preRelease_v0.06_windows_VS2008_FAT\libs\videoInput\lib\videoInput.lib
Could you please give me some help with that? Or just put your dependecies libraries in your svn.
Thanks in advance.
Once again, thank you for sharing your work.

It’s working now but I have no idea why.
For those wich has the same problem, here goes my solution:
I downloaded OpenCV 2.1.0
In the project, I removed all references of OpenFrameworks.
In C/C++/Additional Include Directories, I put Dependencies\OpenCV-2.1.0\3rdparty\include
In Linker/Addition Library Directories, I put Dependencies\OpenCV-2.1.0\3rdparty\lib
In Linker/Additional Dependencies, I put videoInput.lib
And it worked great!
I dind’t know OpenFrameworks library (until I read this your post). Is it based on OpenCV? If so, is there some special reason for to use OpenFrameworks instead OpenCV?
Thank you man!

Hi!
Tell me please, is it real to work with multi markers, using your ArToolKitPlusDemo source code?
Thanks
@Mike: yes, but you have to manually edit your ar_config.cfg to setup markers location.
Thanks for answer, i will try
I wonder how multiple single markers can be implemented in your code since you apply the transformation matrices to the camera node and not the objects themself.
Would it work to just take the inverse of the matrices and apply them to the object nodes? But how should the camera be oriented to view them all?
@pokey909: my code is using the TrackerMultiMarkerImpl class of ArToolKitPlus. This tracker can’t be used for multiple single markers, it is designed for tracking several markers that are fixed (you know the spatial transformations between all markers). So if you want to track multiple single markers you have to implement your own tracker (or create multiple instance of the single marker tracker, each one tracking one marker, but that would be overkill). I can’t provide you any code for that because I’m working on other demos now, sorry.
@admin Yeah i know about the multitracker. I implemented my own Ogre integration since i needed a stereo rendering (2 cameras) of the scene to display on a HMD.
However, your code is much cleaner and nicely designed. I just always get confused about the transformation matrices of ARTK. You use them by inverting the transform to orient the camera. I just want to do the opposite and orient the object (and keep cam fixed). So using the matrices as they come in from ARTK (without the inversion) should give you the transformation of the objects right?
@pokey909: I’ve done that (keeping the cam fixed and moving the object) in a previous version but I think that you need to keep the 180° rotation around z. Best solution is to try by yourself.
Thanks for sharing your great demo.
I successfullycompiled it and runed it.
But I have encountered two problems.
1. The marker detection works in the release target but not in the debug target.
The Ogre doesn’t appear on the marker in the debug target.
2. The application exits unexceptionally when trys to run it in the debuging mode vis VS. Each time, it exits when calling videoinput::setupdevice().
But it is launchable by double clicking the executable file directly.
Sorry to bother you but I have now better person to ask to.
Do you have any idea about these 2 problems?
The following is my working environment.
videoinput VI_VERSION 0.1995
OS Window7
VS 2010
camera: notebook web1.3M
Thanks advanced.
i can download the demo code from svn??
how i can get the code?
i cant download the source code from svn
@alekos: yes, we can
The link to the zip file and to the SVN are on this page.
hi, i was compile with the newest OGRE 1.7.2, can run, but when the marker appear in webcam, the screen became black, what’s the problem, i modified some code to compile but should not affect the main program, is it difference between 1.7.0 and 1.7.2?
my fault! sorry for that. I recompile artoolkitplus and every thing get right. my old artoolkitplus build was very strange that debug version and release version example got different result which i never met before. thank you for sharing the code.
Hi,can you explain the mean of the ar_confirg.cfg.

And how to translate a pic to the file “ar_calib.cal”
@Andrew: I never have used picture pattern with ArToolkit. But the documentation of ArToolkit is available at: http://www.hitl.washington.edu/artoolkit/documentation/. The specification of “ar_confirg.cfg” are explained in the link “Tutorial 3: Multi-Marker Tracking”.
Henri,Thank you for you respond.
Hi, I like your demo and Im trying to do the same thing using Ogre and Artoolkit (not Artoolkitplus) but i can’t find the signification of several parameters in your demo.
How do you find your _distanceFromCamera value and how do you initialize your ogre camera (position, FOV, …)? Is there a link with your camera intrinsic parameters?
The tracking works well but the 3D object seems to fly above the webcam image. Any idea ?
@Mathieu: the far plane of the camera it has 50000 and so the webcam plane is situated just before (_distanceFromCamera = 45000). The configuration of the plane is described in createWebcamPlane, My webcam has a vertical FOV of 26°. You can send me an email if you want something more specific.
Hi, nice project.
I want to cover the entire window to the video plane, How should I change the code?
@toshi: you have 2 options: the easy one is to use a 2D rectangle instead of a background plane (but the video will be on top: I’m not sure if you can adjust the rendering order to prevent this). The other option is to set the Ogre3D camera Fov to the one of your webcam.
Hi,
I changed Ogre camera Fov to 26 (same as intrinsic param) and video plane to background.
It works fine. Thank you.
thankyou very much…..
how if i want to render all the environment, not only the object.
hi mr maylson i tried your trick but when i compiled it it was show another error like “1>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘atlthunk.lib’” what is that means… and how to solve it??
Hello,
is the source code still available for this project?
@bill: yes, you just need to click on the “svn on code.google” link
Finally, it works great!!!! Very nice job!!!! Thank you Henri!!!! I’ll recommend it to others!!!!
