Pick a trigger image that tracks properly

Artivive

Artist Sarah Main explains the single technical thing that decides whether an AR artwork works: the trigger image. Using her own high contrast abstract portraits she shows why images with clear light and dark areas track cleanly, and why low contrast pieces full of mid tones make the animation drift and jitter. Practical advice from someone who has published on the platform since 2020, not a spec sheet.
