Hello @sahmilcheelan

Could you provide some information on specific mechanics and/or interactions that will take place in your app? This way we can help recommend which features to investigate using within Vuforia.

Thanks

 

the app will ask the user to enter the desired destination,and it should find the path to the destination and display the path to the user through an augmented path to the real world scene captured through the camera in user's phone

 

indoor? outdoor?

 

Outdoor

 

This is beyond the scope of Vuforia AR.
Take a look at Unity's LocationService to tell you where your are in the outside world; https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/LocationService.Start.html

 

... and combine location with Compass information. ( See https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Compass.html )

 

@theolagendijk, how about indoor?

 

You could use bluetooth beacons or physical beacons.
Google around for inspiration. I found ; https://www.internalpositioning.com/
