Rendering 3D model has nothing to do with Vuforia - you draw what you want, probably with OpenGL. In one of their sample they do demonstrate showing a 3D teapot model on the detected target. If you have your own obj model, convert it to a header file (there are tools for that) in order to have the model values in the proper arrays (vertices, texCoords and normals), like in the example (look at the 'Teapot.h" file). I was using this tool some time ago: obj2opengl
