This is the step where you add data objects to the locations you previously captured with the AC Scanner app. Please note you will need access to the internet via mobile data or wi-fi, and GPS access.

Then you should move the white circles so that their sticker plane corresponds to the plane of the marked object. After that you should tap on the “cloud” icon at the bottom of the screen. If object has been added, you’ll see the message below.

6) If something goes wrong, you’ll see the message “Cannot add object”.

This can happen in several cases:

1. If the location to which you are adding the object has not been previously reconstructed

2. If you chose a bad angle and the frame is not localized. In this case, return to the “photo mode” screen, change the angle, and re-add the object.
