In the context of preparing content for AR instructions using WorkLink Create, there are two main categories of content: 2D and 3D.

2D Content Preparation:

1. Types of 2D Content:

   • This includes images or videos, serving as instructional diagrams, detailed photos, warning symbols, logos, or complex task demonstrations.

2. Collection of Content:

   • Begin by gathering all relevant pictures and videos that will be used in the AR instructions.

3. Quality and Complexity Reduction:

   • Reduce the resolution and complexity of files to ensure optimal support within the AR instruction.
   • High-resolution images or videos can lead to long load times and decreased performance, especially on handheld devices.

4. Image Considerations:

   • PNG or JPEG formats are supported.
   • Be mindful of the total resolution if using multiple images in a single scene.
   • Suggested resolution for images is around 1000 pixels by 800 or less to balance quality and performance.

5. Video Considerations:

   • MP4 format is supported.
   • Keep videos short and low resolution for better performance.
   • Be cautious about including audio, ensuring it is at a reasonable volume and relevant to the content.

6. File Size Recommendations:

   • No specific hard recommendation for file size.
   • Consider the overall complexity of your project and aim for shorter, lower resolution videos and images for better performance.

General Tips:

• Prioritize using 2D content where it is most effective in conveying information.
• Mindfully assess the impact of file size, resolution, and audio on overall performance.
• Avoid unintentional loud audio surprises for the end user by checking and adjusting audio levels as needed.

This careful preparation of 2D content sets the stage for a smoother AR instruction experience, optimizing both visual clarity and performance.
