Interface AugmentedRealityService

All Known Implementing Classes:
AndroidAugmentedRealityService, DefaultAugmentedRealityService, DummyAugmentedRealityService, IOSAugmentedRealityService
public interface AugmentedRealityService
The Augmented Reality Service allows accessing the native AR kit, if it is available. The developer can check if the device has Augmented Reality support.

Example

 AugmentedRealityService.create().ifPresent(service -> {
       Availability availability = service.checkAR(() -> {
          // perform action after ARCore is installed
       });
       System.out.println("AR availability: " + availability.name());
  });
A 3D model with .obj format can be added, and when the user taps on the Augmented Reality world, it will be displayed. The .obj file can make reference to other .mtl files, and/or to texture files. All of these files have to be placed in the /src/main/resources/ folder or subfolders.

Example

The following example includes two files: DukeKing.obj and DukeKing.mtl under the src/main/resources/models folder

 AugmentedRealityService.create().ifPresent(service -> {
       ARModel model = new ARModel();
       model.setName("DukeKing");
       model.setObjFilename("models/DukeKing.obj");
       model.setScale(0.8);
       service.setModel(model);
       service.cancelled().addListener((obs, ov, nv) -> {
           if (nv) {
               System.out.println("AR was cancelled");
           }
       });
       service.showAR();
  });
