AR in iOS only? #10

Closed jkosem closed 3 years ago

jkosem commented 3 years ago

@JGL After doing some experimenting with Reality Composer (iOS) I think one easy way to do this would be to would be have the AR version basically be the pro one and work only on iOS. It seems as though USDZ works in Safari (not great) but looks like here that there are other options which I'm assuming includes other browsers.

Look, here's an Italianate house on my really underwhelming printer as an example in Reality Composer.

Now imagine a castle floating on a hill in the distance. Not sure.

Bam, finally found it... https://webkit.org/blog/8421/viewing-augmented-reality-assets-in-safari-for-ios/ and it's supposedly supported for two years now.

Testing this example which is one of the few I found out there, it seems that (both Safari and FF) on iOS it opens the Reality Composer app which then does the AR.

Nothing in-browser, and even Vectary opens it in Reality Composer from Safari.

Closing since so far looks possible. May reopen.
