About ARCore

With ARCore, build new augmented reality experiences that seamlessly blend the digital and physical worlds. Transform the way people play, shop, learn, create, and experience the world together, at Google scale. ARCore is Google’s platform for building augmented reality experiences. Using different APIs, ARCore enables your phone to sense its environment, understand the world and interact with information. Some of the APIs are available across Android and iOS to enable shared AR experiences. Motion tracking allows the phone to understand and track its position relative to the world. Environmental understanding allows the phone to detect the size and location of all type of surfaces: horizontal, vertical and angled surfaces like the ground, a coffee table or walls. Light estimation allows the phone to estimate the environment's current lighting conditions. ARCore's motion tracking technology uses the phone's camera to identify interesting points.
