ARCore support?

[slayermaster]

Is there any progress on ARCore tracking? Where should I start from if I were to add ARCore support?

so far arcore is not implemented at all. for the second question, i have no definitive anwser, i was trying to understand the code and research arcore in general to try and add it myself, but thats it so far from me

ARCode should be added on Android Project, you can get more quicker dev support on #dev channel in PhoneVR Discord :)

Just researched ArCore (Google). It's weirdly supported by Google for only very narrow range of devices (https://developers.google.com/ar/devices). It seems like only flagship models of each OEMs. And phonevr userbase is rarely flagship mobile phones.

Should we really invest time in integrating ArCore ? Not to mention it doesn't even support the device I myself have

@ShootingKing-AM Yeah, google prove a list of supported device. But this list just have tested (?) devices.
So, my two devices not in list but works.

As I see, device just should have Depth API for work.

@ShootingKing-AM there's a github repo for arbitrary supported devices that is scraped from the official list at https://github.com/rolandsmeenk/ARCore-devices
I'm not sure how good ARCore-based 6DoF tracking can be tho since I don't have one that supports Depth API

hey i know this is kinda old but i did some experimenting with arcore for phone based vr controllers and tracking was surprisingly very good!

also in my testing google's "supported devices page" was very inconsistent, some devices only worked on specific versions of arcore even if they were listed as supporting depth api
