I was just wondering if anyone knows whether it is possible to embed augmented reality into a website. So for instance, if I was to create a space invaders style game could I use put a placeholder image onto a website that comes to life and starts playing the game outside/around the computer when the users holds their phone up to the screen?
OR
Create a website designed to be accessed on your mobile. And then when the user access the website, it accesses (with their permission) the users camera to turn their environment into the space invaders game. Critically I don't want to force the user to download anything but I can't find anything to support whether this is possible or not.
Many thanks!
You can use WebGL+Vuforia for building Augmented Reality for a web page. For example like this.
Moreover, you can check this related medium post. It can be helpful for you. This project was developed by a Javascript framework for Augmented Reality.

I'm an educator and wish to build an app for my students. It will be quite basic with a login so they can find their info, invoices, ... But it would be really handy for them to have an app for this instead of using the webbrowser.
But it wouldn't be financially interesting to build an native app from scratch and since this functionality already exists op web. So I would like to use WebView instead to load this part of my website and won't have to maintain the app.
I heard Apple can give you hard time and decline your app if it only uses Webview to load a webpage. Is that correct?
If your site is responsive and within the webview it presents application appearance it becomes easier to be approved. If they refuse you can put a single native functionality to justify being an app, or try to cache the site on the local disk.
You said you have a login system for your students, and it is important to register on the site as well.

I need to develop a prototype of an augmented reality app for research purpose.
This is my first time with augmented application and I only have basic knowledge on android.
The application is an android application that uses video overlay to display over the scene after detecting a target. The only problem is that the videos are obtained from another user (through another application that will allow user to record a video). The tutorials and examples I found allow you to attach the video to the target by developer not the the user and that's not my case.
Since either way I have to invest sometime to learn how to develop it. Whats you recommended environment? Android studio with **Vuforia. Vuforia with unity ? or other SDK? and I would appreciate if you have a slimier tutorial and samples.
It just a prototype therefore I'm not looking for high quality. Easy and less time consuming is my interest.
Unity 3D with Vuforia is easier for a beginner to understand. For more advanced functions you might want to use the Android Studio. I am not sure about how the user can attach a video to the target since normally, the developer has to include the video file in the Assets folder to attach it to target. This is how it is done in Unity. I hope someone can give you a better insight into this. But, I have worked with Unity/Vuforia and it is a pretty comfortable and easy environment for a beginner. All the best for your prototype :)

I have a 3D object displayed on the iPhone screen, I need to display it via VR glasses and the user can interact with the object (zoom in/out).
-I need help how doing this using VR glasses without using unity.
Thanks
If you don't want to use Unity, then you will have to roll this out mostly on your own. There are some example projects that show how to create basic VR experiences on iOS (including one I made using SceneKit).
If you want to make something more serious, and are not looking to just experiment, then I'd highly recommend using Unity since you can then use the latest Google Cardboard SDK. This will give you much better results since it will handle all of the camera/view aspects for you.
You can use a Google Cardboard for you headset, at least that is an initial inexpensive option. There is a magnetic "trigger" on the Cardboard that you can use for binary input in you app. My example project also includes a class that handles input from this trigger by detecting the disruption to the magnetic field around the device's compass. You can use this trigger to handle the zoom in/out.
Good luck!

I know I can't record a video while I'm on my phone in general and that if the capability existed or could exist that it would be a feature/option.
Are there apps that do this and if it can be done can someone help me get started code wise?
EDIT
Because there seems to be some confusion as to what I'm asking, I will clarify:
Are we able to launch phone calls using the iPhone regular calling feature and use the iPhone regular movie creating feature (the video camera) at the same time in an APP - as we know it can't be done generally.
Yes and no. You can't use Apple's built-in camera and phone to do it. But, obviously there are many apps (i.e. Skype and others) that use both camera and voice features in their VoIP implementations. So, it would take a custom camera and VoIP to accomplish this.

This is my first time working on Augmented Reality topic. I am about to develop an application which uses augmented reality to recognise and measure the n number of objects in my room. Something like in the attached image. I need to identify each edges and corners and have to do some vast math calculation for the measurement. I am pretty sure that it cant be achieved only through iOS SDK, I need to use some external library/SDKs. I need some scanner SDK which does the real time image recognition.
I came across Qualcomm's Vuforia, Realitycap, metaIO. My dilemma is, a developer who worked in product and business based iOS application can do this image recognition stuff? An iOS developer does not have that awesome experience in image processing. Can anyone suggest me some cool stuff to come over? Suggest some ideas also, it will help me a lot.
You can use metaio sdk to scan different objects. You can create as many object models in unity3D and have in database. The above sdk helps you to do in 3D scanning and many more features.
I think there is a possibility to use OpenCV
API can be found at: http://opencv.org
