Is it possible to use the C-API of Google's Tango Library outside Android Studio? I want to build a Qt application for Android (using Qt-Creator) and use the motion tracking of Google's Tango project. How would I have to set up such a project?

Android Studio is just an IDE, keeping in mind that the tango library also needs the NDK, I assume that the Studio requirement is more for the Android SDK part, because you cannot target Android without it.
The tango library appears to be a C library, hence the NDK requirement. That means you can directly use it from C++, and as such, using Qt Creator as an IDE.
There is also a Java binding for the library, which you can use from Qt via the QAndroidJniObject class, but at any rate, it would be easier and more efficient to use the native C API directly.
There shouldn't be anything fancy you need to do to set up a project, just link the tango libraries to a regular Qt project, you can use the Add Library wizard that comes with Qt Creator.
