I'm building an AR panorama with AR.js and would like to have markers floating above landmarks. I tried a sample provided in AR.js git but it’s always the same bug, the marker is not synchronized with the object/landmark when I’m moving the camera, it doesn't stay at the right place. In the beginning, I thought my coordinates were wrong but they are not, I tried both in GPS mode and in simulated/forced location mode (double-checking my location with a handheld Garmin GPS12) for the user location.

Here is a video of the problem (we see the marker doesn't stay above the obelisk).

Here is my HTML code, which is pretty close to the sample.
