Overall Satisfaction with Google ARCore

Google ARCore is the best tool to start the AR journey for any product. This is being majorly used by technology and product teams in our organization. For end-product use and testing, we also get people from marketing teams to use it. But primarily this is for developers and product managers.
  • Auto plane identification
  • Light and shadow detection
  • Anchoring things in augmented reality
  • Depth sensing can be improved
  • Human body detection is not great
  • For large scale virtual objects, it slows down
  • E-commerce product catalog optimization
  • AR-assisted live guidance to customers
  • It has helped improve our client conversion rate
  • Increased customer satisfaction and winning customers from competition
  • Decreases TAT from consideration to ordering
Though Google ARCore has fewer results in github repository as compared to ARKit, it still has a more stable platform and better documentation to make the development process easy. One can do experiments very quick and easy with ARCore to try out various features. Amazon Sumerian is not yet there as compared to ARCore.

It is well suited for small objects in home/office or familiar surroundings to anchor Augmented Reality Objects. It works well for most e-commerce use cases, travel use cases, games, etc. It is not well suited where depth occlusion is the primary use case or human body anchoring is required or even for large-scale AR use cases.
