ARCore: Augmented Reality at Android scale

on YouTube ↗15m

" summary

ARCore claims production-ready motion tracking, environmental understanding (horizontal, vertical, angled plane detection) and lighting estimation running on hundreds of millions of devices and exposing APIs for Unity, Unreal, iOS and Android. New releases include Sceneform (a Java 3D framework with PBR and drag‑and‑drop assets), augmented images for registering 2D triggers, and Cloud Anchors enabling cross‑platform multiuser sessions (example: open‑source Just a Line). Parallel work pushes AR into browsers via the WebXR API prototypes in Chrome Canary.
