    The author proposes an extension of Cartan's method of equivalence to immersions. He shows how the basic steps in Cartan's method, starting with encoding of desired geometric structures in terms of suitable moving frames, can be carried out in order to find obstructions to the existence of immersions between given geometric structures.
