Qualcomm® Vuforia™ is a mobile vision platform that enables apps and devices to connect the physical world with digital experiences that demand attention, drive engagement, and deliver value. Providing best-in-class augmented reality experiences, Vuforia delivers interactive 3D graphics, touch, video, and audio features to bring movie magic and computer graphics to mobile apps and provides a broad range options for creative empowerment – including simultaneous tracking of multiple targets, video playback, virtual buttons, background effects, and occlusion management (“X-ray vision”).

Extended tracking delivers continuous visual experiences even when the target is out of view and experiences work in a variety of lighting conditions and at a range of tracking distances. Vuforia has been adopted by leading global brands and is supported by the world’s largest AR developer ecosystem of more than 90,000 developers and has powered more than 8,000 commercial apps. https://www.vuforia.com/...
