Multiple image anchors for a large scale ar scene

Let's say a user is at an entrance point of a maze and there is an initial anchor point on the floor to calibrate the large scene with the maze. As the user walks through the maze, there are other distinguishable anchor points on the floor to help orient the users position in the large scene with the maze. Using the same anchor point would not work as the user would just be sent back to the initial anchor position in the large scale scene. Without creating a whole new scene with the initial position updated, it would be nice to impliment this feature to auto update position with multiple indestinguishable anchor points set in the scene.

this is a good question.
One method would be to print out the anchor targets and place them into the scene with some type of fixed in place position aparatus. Then scan the scene containing the anchors. Injest the scan and align it to the scene assets in the aero workspace. Now you know just where to place the 2D anchors within the 3D scene.

Hi @Rafael26762136ii1f , this is a great idea, and I love to hear about your ideas for calibrating the placement of large objects around the viewer. I will pass this along this idea to the team. Multiple image targets may or may not be the best way to do this, but they are helpful for many things. I will reiterate that feature request as well. Thanks!
