AR1 Core Specification
The foundational specification for augmented reality development. AR1 introduces core spatial computing principles, device compatibility, and essential API features.
1. Core Principles
AR1 establishes the fundamental framework for spatial anchor placement, device calibration, and basic environment mapping. This version supports single-user experiences with limited environmental understanding capabilities.
2. API Features
The AR1 API includes foundational methods for device initialization, scene configuration, and basic object placement. This version provides a minimal viable product interface for developers to create immersive experiences.
// Basic AR Scene Initialization
const session = new ARSession({
requiredFeatures: ['environmentDepth', 'lightEstimation'],
maxPlanes: 10,
planeFinding: true
});
3. Hardware Requirements
AR1 requires devices with at least 4-core processors, dual cameras, and ARCore/ARKit compatibility. Performance may vary on older hardware due to limited tracking capabilities.
Supported Devices:
Specification Evolution
| Feature | AR1 | AR3-1 |
|---|---|---|
| Multi-user Support | - | ✓ |
| SLAM Algorithm | ✓ | ✓ |
| Anchor Persistence | ✓ | ✓ |
| Ray Casting | Partial | ✓ |
Getting Started
1. Setup Development Environment
- Install AR1 SDK for your development platform
- Configure device-specific permissions
- Set up camera access for AR camera feed
2. Create Your First AR App
Use the base API to place virtual objects in real-world environments. Start with simple cube placement and gradually add environmental understanding.
