Evolve your ARKit app for spatial experiences

Evolve your ARKit app for spatial experiences

This video provides several key tips on bringing your iPadOs and iOS ARKit expeerience to Spatial Computing.

Overview 0:00

  • Introduced ARKit in 2017
  • Tracks your device with 6 degrees of freedom
    • Allows for anchoring
  • Scene Understanding
    • Geometry and semantic knowledge for placement
  • Rendering
    • SceneKit -> RealityKit
  • ARKit and RealityKit deeply integrated
  • Built in camera passthrough and hand matting
  • World map persistence is a system service

Prepare your experience

  • Present your app
    • Shared Space
    • Full Space
      • AnchorEntity
      • ARKit
  • Prepare your content

Use RealityView

  • Mix and match 2D and 3D
  • Container for entities
    • Entity component system
  • Interact with SwiftUI Gestures
  • Realistic simulations with surroundings

  • Very Similar to ARView - ARView similar to RealityView - Scene similar to Content - AnchorEntity must ARSession in iOS while RealityView does not need permissions

Bring in your content

  • Shared Space
    • Add entities to your view
    • Relative to space origin
    • Can interact with other entities in the space
  • Full Space
    • AnchorEntity
      • No user permission required
      • Transforms not shared
      • support hands
      • ARKit - placement logic
        • Use ARKit Scene understanding
        • Leverage ARKit anchor data
        • Utilize world anchor
        • Transforms are relative to space origin
        • Requires user permission

Raycasting

  • Ray casting provides a 3D location in physical space that corresponds to a given 2D location on the screen. When you call this function, it succeeds in returning a result when a mathematical ray that ARKit casts outward from the user intersects with any real-world surfaces that ARKit detects in the physical environment.
    • Requires collision components
      • MeshAnchor for each item in the world
    • Raycast with System Gestures or Hand Tracking
      • SpatialTapGesture
      • Hand Anchors
    • Add world anchor
    • Combine the elements
    • Interact with it

ARKit updates

  • Run your session
    • iOS have mutiple tracking configurations
      • AROrientationTrackingConfiguration
      • ARImageTrackingConfiguration
      • ARWorldTrackingConfiguration
      • ARPositional TrackingConfiguration
    • Spatial computing
      • HandTrackingProvider
      • SceneReconstructionProvider
      • ImageTrackingProvider
      • PlaneDetectionProvider
      • WorldTrackingProvider
    • So you have your own selection of anchors you would like to recieve.
  • recieve anchor updates
    • iOS
      • ARSessionDelegate
        • ARFrame
          • Anchors
    • Spatial Computing
      • Providers decoupled from the Frame
        • Anchor updates
  • persist world anchors
    • iOS: multiple steps
      • Application
        • Save map
        • Load map
        • Relocalize
        • Get anchors
        • Show content
    • Spatial computing: Handles the map
      • System
        • Save map
        • Load map
        • Relocalize
      • Application
        • WorldTrackingProviders
        • Get Anchors
        • Show Content
