Cylindrical Image Targets
Was recently exploring 8th wall and one thing that stood out was cylindrical and conical image targets. Given that we have soo many designs in real life that are on curved surfaces like bottle, poles, pipes etc. cylindrical targets would really help in Lens Studio as well

Thanks for this feedback Krunal. This is something long talked about. I'm curious, to what degree do you think that training your own custom object detection models solves for this?

Hey Raag, that’s actually one of the other most requested features too. But I feel cylindrical targets could make it much easier to track visuals on curved surfaces without needing to train, especially in cases where object detection isn’t ideal.
For example, a curved poster wrapped around a lamp post or a pipe wouldn’t be practical to train as a full custom object. Object tracking works great for things like bottles or smaller 3D items, but not so much for larger, fixed structures. Cylindrical tracking could definitely bridge that gap.
