Forum Thread: Looking for AR Comparable to Vuforia

I've been working with the Vuforia Augmented Realtiy SDK in Unity recently and have been very impressed with the results. Until I saw the price tage ($4500 for Android/iOS).

Can anyone recommend a comparable AR engine? I'm specifically looking for a way to: -publish cross-platform (Android/iOS) -render 3D images well on mobile devices -detect any type of marker (not just black&white)

I willing to pay, just not that much.

I've done a lot of searching. I saw FLARToolkit for Flex but it's only able to use b&w markers I saw many other SDKs for Unity. There are also a bunch of smaller SDKs that can't don't come with renderers (as far as I can tell).

Thanks
