Troubleshooting

If you have trouble finding a target in Augmented Reality mode, here are some tips:

  • Turn on more lights in the room
  • Slow down the rate at which you move your iOS or Android device around to detect a surface in the room
  • Move around the room, scan more surfaces, and from various angles
  • Make sure your iOS or Android device is pointed at a sufficiently textured surface
  • Tip: Select a surface that allows you to comfortably explore your model
