- Print this marker on paper such that it is about 6cm wide.
- Head over to: https://scanar.github.io/, allow the webcam to start, hold up the marker, and enjoy the AR magic!

The code below is a snippet of how one can render an OBJ model based on a marker.

<a-scene embedded arjs='sourceType: webcam; debugUIEnabled: false; detectionMode: mono_and_matrix; matrixCodeType: 4x4_BCH_13_9_3;'>
<a-marker type='barcode' value='206'>

</a-marker>
<a-entity camera></a-entity>

</html>Specifically the following code helps render a 3D model called bunny.obj whose shading is defined with the aid of bunny.mtl (which in turn requires bunny.png). The 3D model is rendered using the barcode marker number 206.
<a-marker type='barcode' value='206'>
<a-entity obj-model="obj: url(bunny.obj); mtl: url(bunny.mtl)"></a-entity>
</a-marker>Therefore to render an alternative model users may replace the model, and optionally also the marker used.
Markers can be found in the /markers folder. Currently the code uses markers of the type 4x4_bch_13_9_3 which are contained in the folder /markers/4x4_bch_13_9_3. To test a marker, print it such that the black square is about 4cm in size, and ensure it has a white border of about 1 cm. An example for marker 206 is shown below.
