'''Vuforia''' is an [[augmented reality]] [[software development kit]] (SDK) for mobile devices that enables the creation of augmented reality applications.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.vuforia.com/ | title=Vuforia | work=Vuforia website}}</ref> It uses computer vision technology to recognize and track planar images and 3D objects in real time. This image registration capability enables developers to position and orient [[virtual object]]s, such as [[3D modeling|3D models]] and other media, in relation to real world objects when they are viewed through the camera of a mobile device. The virtual object then tracks the position and orientation of the image in real-time so that the viewer's [[perspective (visual)|perspective]] on the object corresponds with the perspective on the target. It thus appears that the virtual object is a part of the real-world scene.
