WEEK 4 - METAIO

First, it seems quite challenging to learn about Metaio. But, after several failure attempts to login, scan 3D map, and so on, i decided not to use the software as i do not feel interest in doing metaio after saw how the things are going to work.

Actually, the software is "more" worthed for those who interest in 3D. But, there is a limit where the software is only allowed 2 trackables.

It is started with opening metaio, and choose "image tracking" for 2D thing. Basically, it needs an icon or picture printed and select that paper to be scanned later.

After that, apply 3D object from creator3.3.2 folder -> examples -> contents -> 3D_models -> choose what you want.

After 3D object appear, go to "quick preview" to start the metaio simulation through webcam. And here it is! 

First trial is using metaio superman, and below is the outcome...

The second one, i explored with mammuth. Actually, could explore with whatever object there. 

Then, it is followed by adding 2 chairs from armchair2.fbx and carpet images to make a living room. Photo below is 2 chairs without carpet.

Adjust the position from front view

Next thing was demo with object tracking by using 3D map. However, it needs a real object to be scanned with "metaio toolbox" from your IPAD or smart phone. After scan a real object which is proofed by red dots around, it sends to your email and accessed until it is opened in metaio. 

Next, insert mammuth or something else in some areas of red dot and scanned the real object with "junaio" from ipad or smart phone. 

That's all for today i think.. hahaha
