Creating spontaneous AR interactions with Google ARCore and Instant Apps

on YouTube ↗49m

" summary

Shows a working pipeline that launches AR sessions from NFC/QR into Google ARCore via Instant Apps, loads a Sceneform 3D model (a watch) and a runtime procedural mesh with a custom vertex shader, and funnels users to checkout. Demonstrates augmented images for anchoring, emulator support, and that experiences run but suffer drift and occlusion limits. Deployment requires Android App Bundle, Play Console setup and obeys the 10 MB limit for instant APKs plus ~15 MB extra assets, which proved painful but feasible.
