Augmented Reality > Workflow to Publish and View Augmented Reality Experience

You must have a PTC user account to publish and share the augmented reality experience models.

1. Load a part or assembly in Creo Elements/Direct Modeling.

2. Click View and then, in the Augmented Reality group, click

Spatial Target. The Position Wp dialog box opens. Use the options to specify the location on which the model will be augmented to a horizontal surface. The spatial placement feature is added in the Structure Browser.

3. Click

Publish Model and use the Publish Experience Model dialog box to publish the augmented reality experience model to the Vuforia Experience Service.

4. Click Manage Models to share the experience model with others by e-mail.

When you first publish or share the experience model in a session, an authentication dialog box opens. Use your PTC credentials to authenticate. The login is retained for the session if you click Remember my credentials.

To view the augmented reality experience models

1. Download Vuforia View on your handheld device from the following:

◦ App store for Apple devices

◦ Google Play store for Android devices

2. Tap the Experience link. Vuforia View opens. You do not need to authenticate to view the augmented reality experience model published to the Personal Experience Service. If the experience model is published to a Premium service, an authentication dialog box opens. Provide your PTC credentials.

If you do not have the access to view the model, an error appears. Request the author of the model to add you as a viewer for the model.

3. Select the surface on which you want to augment the model. The augmented model is anchored to the selected surface. The default experience allows you to rotate, translate, and zoom in on the model.

Vuforia View reads the data from the server and prepares the experience based on the configuration in Creo Elements/Direct Modeling. You can bookmark an experience.
