Downloads
Downloading additional content
When you download additional content from https://aximmetry.com for Aximmetry the file should be a .xpack file.
All .xpack files can be double-clicked and Aximmetry Installer installs the file's contents.
I have downloaded a content package. It is a zip file. When I try to extract it asks for a password. Can you help?
From our experience, this problem happens when using download software like Internet download manager (IDM)
After downloading the files we need only to change file extensions to .xpack extension
Updates and Improvements
Where can I find the list of updates and improvements of Aximmetry
You can check for new features and updates at https://my.aximmetry.com by clicking on the “what's new” link on the MY SOFTWARE page. Where your licences are listed.

Augmented Reality
Can Aximmetry be used for AR (Augmented Reality)?
In the software base project folder, you can find a simple AR tutorial scene at:
[Tutorials]:AR\AR_Example.xcomp
You can use our tracked camera documentation for this:
It demonstrates using tracking with virtual sets, but AR is basically a simpler version of that without keying, green setup and billboards.
In the example scene, you'll see the simpler AR-specific control boards.
Camera lens and tracking calibration
The Aximmetry Camera Calibrator offers Lens Calibration and Tracking Calibration.
Lens Calibration can measure lens distortion, Center Shift, and Focal Length.
Tracking calibration automatically calculates the tracker's position on the camera.
