QR Code Target Training

General information about QR Code Target tracking can be found here.

Preparation

Unlike Image Targets, QR Code Target training does not require input images. It produces the trackable QR Code as an output image.

Tip

The encoded QR Code content can contain any type of characters, for example a URL like http://track.virnect.com.

Warning

Due to different encodings QR Codes which were not generated with the VIRNECT Trainer CLI will most likely not be trackable even if they encode the same content.

QR Code target training

TRACK-Trainer-Native.exe qrcode --name QRCodeTarget --content http://track.virnect.com/ --physicalSize 0.1 --output .\

The following parameters can be set for image target training:

  • name Name of the target following the naming convention mentioned here.
  • content Content of the generated QR code, can be a URL or any other string with a maximum of 26 characters
  • physicalSize Physical size of the printed QR code in meter, e.g. "0.1" if the printed QR code is 10cm x 10cm The size is needed so that distance estimation can be accurate. If the physical size specified during training differs from the actual physical size of the target, the virtual distance to the target will not match the real distance.
  • output Optional Output path, must be a directory, e.g. ".\Targets\"
