DIY Object Tracking in AR

⊲ Towards Data Science ⊳ The integration of on-device machine learning with spatial computing platforms, such as Apple’s visionOS, represents a significant shift in how digital content interacts with the physical world. This article describes how developers can build their own object recognition apps for XR with readily available tools. By using Apple’s RealityComposer for 3D scanning, training models in Create ML, and implementing real-time tracking with ARKit and RealityKit, anyone with basic Swift knowledge can create immersive applications. The step-by-step process, from capturing a 3D model, here of a soda can, to deploying a functional AR experience, puts cutting-edge AI-enhanced spatial computing directly in the hands of DIY developers.
