Dynamic AR object management for large number of trahscans #12

Open MrCsabaToth opened 1 year ago

MrCsabaToth commented 1 year ago

Currently only portions of the North-East campus is mapped out. My testing locations at my apartment complex are confined into a small area. However as soon as all the locations will be mapped out (https://github.com/RecyclingTrashCans/RecyclingTrashCans.github.io/issues/2) it won't make sense to place all those objects when AR tracking becomes active. There should be a range (preferably configurable and defaulting to a meaningful number) such as 200-300m radius where the objects would populate. As the students moves around this radius would be re-evaluated and objects could be added and removed dynamically (hence the ticket name).

Badly needed once https://github.com/RecyclingTrashCans/RecyclingTrashCans.github.io/issues/2 is completed and the number of locations will quadruple / quintuple

Let's only show the closest 20 trashcans at any time, and maybe the ones which are towards the current gaze? Although if the user is yanking around the phone what would lead to violent object creation, so maybe the gaze is not feasible?
