    Hello everyone,

    I'm doing a project that when a Vumark is identified, a web browser pop-up as AR but without success.
    I have already made one scene that when recognizes the mark, an image is overlapped on the mark and when I tried to do the same but instead of the image, a web browser should appear.
    Does anyone know if it's possible, and if yes can you guide me through it?

    Short answer: No

    In theory, yes -- but you need a 3d web browser if I understand your use case correctly. I don't know of any existing such thing that works on mobile. The best you could do is get something like UniWebView and have a web browser take over your screen. It might be possible to write your own iOS plugin which does this by rendering a native webview to an image and passing touches from unity to your plugin, while manually controlling the webview, but it would be a lot of work.
