Slides: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1y5YldhejCxli3OsclVsJHRM1_rwA8AplMalSf0d_6Xk/edit?usp=sharing

Installation

Tested with Unity 2018.2.16 installed with Vuforia 7.5

Installed with both Vuforia and Android Build Components

Releases

Each release includes both an APK to test out the project and a zip file of starter code to work through the workshop

Building for Android

• Ensure that Unity is installed with Android Build Components
• In the player settings, uncheck AndroidTV support
• Follow the instructions for Building here: https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/topics/mobile-touch/building-your-unity-game-android-device-testing?playlist=17138
  • I used Unity's internal build system instead of gradle, it shouldn't really matter though.

Building the Robot

• I used a Particle photon to control the robot
• To build the robot, mostly follow this guide https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZbvWbrLAp_iHPgDpoouUpZCBtnHmlw-4PE3RyQugldU/edit
  • I didn't use the photoresistors, but otherwise every thing is the same. Motors and ultrasonic sensors are both plugged into the digital ports on the photon. See code definitions to get specific ports used.
• Use git clone -recursive https://github.com/ubcemergingmedialab/VuforiaIoT.git to get the robot code
