ARCore SDK v1.0.0

ARCore enables AR applications to track a phone’s motion in the real world, detect planes in the environment, and understand lighting in the camera scene. ARCore 1.0 introduces oriented points which allow the placement of virtual objects on non-horizontal or non-planar textured surfaces (like posters and cans). The Android Emulator in Android Studio 3.1 Beta supports ARCore 1.0.

ARCore 1.0 is available for use in production apps on supported Android devices. ARCore 1.0 introduces the concept of AR required and AR optional apps. Apps should be classified as required or optional to ensure the ARCore service install is properly handled by the Play Store.

With ARCore 1.0 your app must request the Android Camera Permission before session create (ArSession_create() in C and new Session() in Java). Previously in Developer Preview 2, camera permission was required only before resuming an AR Session.

Supported Devices

  • This release is only supported on, and should only be installed on, qualified devices running Android N and later. See the list of ARCore supported devices for specific device models.

  • Apps built with ARCore Developer Preview or ARCore Developer Preview 2 are not supported on with ARCore 1.0.

Known Issues

Lifecycle issues

  • ARCore does not support picture-in-picture mode.

Java

  • The rendering primitives included in the sample code are designed to illustrate functionality and are not performance optimized.
  • After Session.pause() is called, Anchor.getTrackingState() and Plane.getTrackingState() will not be set to STOPPED_TRACKING.
