    Hi
    I want to use Vuforia's external camera feature with unity to scan image targets using USB camera instead of the mobile camera in Android device. Is it possible?

    Hello,

    Per our documentation: https://library.vuforia.com/content/vuforia-library/en/articles/Solution/driver-framework.html

    "The Vuforia Engine Driver must be written in C/C++ and must be implemented as a standalone dynamic library (dll or so file) which Vuforia Engine will load at runtime."

    To clarify, the External Camera works in Unity. It’s the actual driver library implementation that needs to be in C/C++, with the library that is included in the Unity project just like the Engine SDK. The Unity project then specifies using the same style call as used in native in C# giving the name of the driver library.

    Thanks,
    Vuforia Engine Support
