VPS & MapSet: Vuforia Area Target Alternative

MultiSet VPS + MapSet is the enterprise replacement for Vuforia Area Targets when you need scan-agnostic mapping, persistent localization across larger spaces, and seamless transitions across floors or zones. Instead of packaging static area datasets into the app, MultiSet supports reusable source scans, flexible deployment, and centimeter-level, low-drift localization built for real production environments.

Yes. If you still have the original Matterport MatterPak or .e57 source files, MultiSet can import that scan data directly, preserve the original coordinate system, and let you keep existing AR content placement without rebuilding the experience from scratch. If you choose to rescan instead, you will create a new map and re-author content against the new origin.

No. Vuforia’s Basic plan allows development with Model Targets and Area Targets, but apps using those features cannot be published to an app store and display a watermark. Publishing those experiences requires a Premium or Enterprise plan.

MultiSet Object Tracking is the direct replacement for Vuforia Advanced Model Targets when you need high-fidelity, 360-degree tracking of real-world objects from photorealistic 3D scans. It is designed for robust object anchoring, supports reuse of existing scan assets, and performs reliably in dynamic and challenging lighting conditions.

Yes. MultiSet supports reusing the same .glb object scan files previously used for Vuforia Model Targets, as well as the Matterport MatterPak and .e57 files used for Vuforia Area Targets. That makes migration faster and helps preserve scale, coordinate alignment, and content placement.

Replace the Vuforia Engine plugin with the MultiSet Unity SDK, then swap Vuforia Area Target GameObjects for the MultiSet SDK prefab and localize against your imported or newly created map. MultiSet’s Unity stack is built on AR Foundation, so it fits cleanly into modern Unity workflows while moving localization from packaged Vuforia datasets to MultiSet’s map-based VPS.
