⌛ Time is money! Iterate faster on your AR projects without leaving Unity Editor. Save time and sanity developing AR apps.
💡 Current workflow with AR Foundation 💡
1. Make a change to your AR project.
2. Build the project and run it on a real AR device.
3. Wait for the build to complete.
4. Wait a little bit more.
5. Test your app on a real device using only Debug.Log().
🔥 Improved workflow with AR Foundation Remote 🔥
1. Set up the AR Companion app once. The setup process takes less than a few minutes.
2. Just press play! Run and debug your AR app with full access to the scene hierarchy and all object properties right in the Editor!
Technical details
💡 Requirements 💡
• Stable version of Unity 2019.4 or newer.
• AR Device (iPhone with ARKit support, Android with ARCore support, etc.).
• AR Device and Unity Editor should be on the same Wi-Fi network (a wired connection is supported with an additional setup).
• Verified version of AR Foundation 3.0.1 or newer.
👉 Limitations 👈
• Please check that your AR device supports the AR feature you want to test in Editor. For example, to test Meshing in Editor, your AR device should support Meshing.
• Video streaming and occlusion textures:
– Are supported with these Editor Graphics APIs: Direct3D11, Metal, and OpenGLCore.
– The framerate is around 15-20 FPS on high-end mobile devices. You can increase the framerate by decreasing the video resolution.
– Default video resolution scale is 0.33. You can increase the resolution in the plugin’s Settings, but this will result in higher latency and lower framerate.
• Touch input remoting and simulation:
– UI can respond to touch simulation and remoting only if the Game View window is focused.
– Only Input Manager is supported (UnityEngine.Input).
• ARKit Object Tracking:
– Adding a new object reference library requires a new build of the AR Companion app.
• CPU images:
– Only one XRCpuImage can be acquired at a time for each CPU image type.
– Only one XRCpuImage.ConvertAsync() conversion is supported at a time.
