How to Build an AR App to Create Floor Plans

How to Build an Augmented Reality App to Create Floor Plans

Introduction

AR (Augmented Reality) can be used to create an almost infinite number of 3D objects. You can use these 3D objects to create a floor plan, or you can use them as part of your real-life surroundings. The goal of this tutorial is to show you how to get started building an app that allows users to interact with the floor plan from their mobile devices. We'll walk through the steps necessary for creating this type of app using ARKit, including how we measured spaces in real life using our iPhone's built-in camera and then created them onscreen using Apple's ARKit framework; what math algorithms are needed for these types of computations; and how we integrate them into our final product so users can interact with our newly constructed space via their phones!

ARKit Tutorial: How to Measure Real-world Spaces in 3D

ARKit is an iOS 11 feature that lets you create and maintain 3D models of physical spaces. It's used in a lot of different applications, including augmented reality (AR).

This tutorial will show you how to measure real-world spaces in 3D using the ARKit API and SceneKit. We'll also explain what makes this app different from other AR apps on the market so far.

How to Create a 3D Floor Plan from an Augmented Reality App

To create a 3D floor plan from an image, you will need to:

• Create an ARKit scene. This is a special type of iOS project that allows you to build high-quality AR experiences for iOS devices. The first step is to create a new scene in Xcode and name it "FloorPlan." Then open MainScene.swift and add the following code:

What is AR?

Augmented reality (AR) is a technology that blends the real world with digital content. It allows users to see things in their environment as well as on their devices, which can be used for many different purposes:

• Entertainment: AR apps can be used for entertainment and games, like Pokémon Go or Snapchat stories.
• Education: AR apps can be used in classrooms to help teachers teach students about science, math, history and more!
• Business: Companies like Lowe’s use AR technology to bring their products into customers' homes so they can see how they work or what features they offer without having them read all those confusing specs on paper!

It's possible to build an AR floor plan app with ARKit.

It's possible to build an AR floor plan app with ARKit. The app uses the camera to measure the space and create a floor plan, which you can then share with others in real-time.

You'll need:

• An iOS device (iPhone or iPad) running iOS 11 or later;
• An Apple Developer account;

You'll also need:

Conclusion

ARKit is a powerful tool for creating AR apps, and it’s easy to get started with the right tools. You can use these tools to create your own AR app that helps you visualize and plan spaces. By using Augmented Reality technology in conjunction with a 3D model of your space, you will be able to make decisions faster than ever before!
