ARCOR stands for Augmented Reality Collaborative Robot. It is a system for simplified programming of collaborative robots based on augmented reality developed by Robo@FIT.

This repository contains the main user interface, Unity-based client application for ARCore-supported tablets: AREditor. The backend part of the solution is available here.

Development is supported by Test-it-off: Robotic offline product testing project (Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic).

With each release, we are building Android apk which can be simply installed on a supported device, which is any ARCore compatible tablet. We use primarily Samsung devices (S6, S7). There are also Linux/Windows binaries, but mainly for testing and debugging purposes (no AR).

Instructions for use can be found on the wiki.

These are instructions for developers.

• clone this repo

• get submodules:

  git submodule update --init

• create symlink of the submodules to the Assets folder:

  Windows:

  cd scripts
  .\link_submodules.bat

  Linux:

  cd scripts
  ./link_submodules.sh

• download multimedia files from LFS:

  git lfs install
  git lfs pull

• get third party assets from Unity AssetStore (extract and copy into Assets/Submodules):

  • Lunar Mobile Console (optional)
  • Loading screen animation
  • Modern UI Pack
  • UI Graph
  • Joystick Pack
  • Native Camera for Android & iOS (only if you want to build Android version)
  • Trilib 2 - manually delete folder Trilib/Plugins/NewtonSoft.Json/ otherwise, there will be most likely conflicts
  • Simple Collada
    • requires to apply patch (/scripts/ColladaImporter.patch and /scripts/StringExtensions.patch) on script ColladaImporter.cs and OrbCreationExtensions/StringExtensions.cs
    • SimpleCollada asset must be moved to Assets/Submodule folder in order to patch script works
    • on Windows, you can download UnxUtils and use batch file in /scripts/patch_simple_collada_asset.bat (if UnxUtils extracted to "C:\Program Files") or use this command:

    path_to_UnxUtils\UnxUtils\usr\local\wbin\patch.exe ..\arcor2_AREditor\Assets\Submodules\SimpleCollada\ColladaImporter.cs -i ColladaImporter.patch
    path_to_UnxUtils\UnxUtils\usr\local\wbin\patch.exe ..\arcor2_AREditor\Assets\Submodules\SimpleCollada\OrbCreationExtensions\StringExtensions.cs -i StringExtensions.patch

    • on Linux, you can use bash script in /scripts/patch_simple_collada_asset.sh

• (Optional) - Get Google Cloud API Key to enable Cloud Anchors (follow step 7 in Codelabs ARCore Extensions tutorial)
