3D Objects Interacting with each other

[jbyrne2007]

Hello!

Does anyone know or think it is possible for 3D objects in Flash AR To
interact with each other? An example of what im asking would be if you
had 2 markers one marker is the 3D arrow other marker is a 3D button
when 3D arrow touches 3D button it would trigger an animation event.
Would this be down to coding in AS or how both models were set to
animate.

Anyone seen work of this? or currently doing work on this? Im aware of
toxins work on AR interaction but thats through the user interacting
using a mouse i wish to use 3d models interacting with each other.

Thanks,
Jamie!

Hi Jamie,

Grab this. 

It worked to me (I used it with FLARToolKit. not FLARManager)

private function hitter():void

{

if(carHolder.hitTestObject(_ball))

{

trace("hitted!");

}

}

hope you likes it

I use Flartoolkit as well al try this now.

[jbyrne2007]

what is the code to trigger the funger hitter?

[jbyrne2007]

Function*** LOL! Sorry no idea why i put funger.

[dieGopen.com]

hitter();

Every time I'm pressing the forward button, it will trigger that funct.

PS: funger? WTF!  lol

Surely your using an event though right?

stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, hitter);

[dieGopen.com]

For example into your _onInit event:

this.stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, this.keyDownHandler);

..And then into your keyboard function..:

private function keyDownHandler(event : KeyboardEvent):void

{

switch (event.keyCode)

{

case Keyboard.UP:

trace("UP");

carHolder.moveForward(10);

upkeydown = true;

hitter();

break;

}

I haven't shown you that part before because I thought you wanted to use the hitter for other things, sorry.

PS: Wow! it sounds like I do know something! Good day to my self esteem :)

[jbyrne2007]

Your example shows the 3D object interacting when you push down your
keyboard key. I want them to interact when they come into contact with
each other.

The following did not work for me:


this.stage.addEventListener(hitTestObject, hitter)

[dieGopen.com]

They interact when they collide. The key pressing is just the way to
make them move to get them in touch.
If you need them to move "on their own" you could use some
onEnterFrame function or a physics engine and check for a collision in
every frame. Correct me if I'm wrong.

salut

[jbyrne2007]

I intend to move them by moving the marker with my hands and then when
the 3D objects collide they animate. I tried the ENTER_FRAME. No
success :( Al keep at it

[jbyrne2007]

ENTER_Frame works a treat, constantly goes to the function. But when
it comes to

if(arrowa.hitTestObject(container))

Just skips over it as if there not hitting.

mm.. I should take a look at the code to try to help you.. if you want to post it, you're welcome :)

[jbyrne2007]

Would you mind if i emailed it to you?

[dieGopen.com]

send it :) 

But I wont promise anything by now 'couse I'm little into dead lines

i would love if you could publish the final explanation of how you
managed it.
good luck

[Javier Patiño]

yeah but that's not Flartoolkit... is based in only artoolkit...not in flash
