AR.js is a lightweight JavaScript library for delivering augmented reality experiences on the web. It supports image tracking, location-based AR, and marker-based interactions—all without requiring native applications or plugins. AR.js was among those great projects, with great technologies, often disruptive ones, that eventually were lacking from documentation and support. We tried to carry on the author's terrific work by maintaining this project, handling new versions, issues, pull requests, the community itself. We continued promoting this project through blogs, Medium articles, socials. And we released new features, like the Location Based AR that was not initially present on AR.js. Now, that we are also ready to ship a new feature, Image Tracking, we feel ready to start a new path, and so we have created a new repository that is not owned by individuals, but by one organization.

Features

  • Enables marker-based AR (e.g., barcode or image tracking)
  • Supports image tracking and multi-image recognition
  • Location-based AR overlays on map or GPS-based environments
  • Works with A-Frame and Three.js ecosystems
  • Pure web solution using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS
  • Fast to deploy and instantly update without app store delays
