VR Racing Sims and AR Car Configurators, Together at Last
summary
A working installation named Acura Grand Prix VR pairs a Unity VR racing sim with an iPad Pro AR configurator that saves liveries to a central passport database so a configured NSX appears in-game. Solutions include choosing Monza, anchoring the camera, swapping to mobile shaders and baked meshes for framerate, and a raycast crash reset that cuts to black and recenters instead of simulating impacts. Deployed at the Canadian Auto Show with long lines and reportedly no motion sickness.
