What's new?

We are excited to announce the release of WebAR SDK v2.0.6, packed with new features, enhancements, and critical bug fixes aimed at improving the augmented reality experience. This release focuses on enhancing user interactions and providing developers with more robust tools to create seamless AR applications.

Perspective-Based Scaling(Aframe & Playcanvas)

Implemented scaling where nearer touchpoints result in larger AR objects compared to farther touchpoints. Recommended to use a canonical model with specific scale and position settings.

AR Rotation Improvement

AR now faces the phone/user after tapping, improving the user experience over previous versions where AR faced the initial world direction.

New SDK Config Properties

Added a new web attribute - disable-ar-always-facing-camera

• disable-ar-always-facing-camera: When the stage cursor is enabled, AR objects now automatically orient to face the camera upon tapping, with behavior adjustable via the disable-ar-always-facing-camera setting.

New APIs

We have added two new APIs:

1. PerformReset(): Allows resetting of tracking, enabling users to design their own reset button.

2. SetPrepareForCameraTransitionCallback(): Triggered just before the camera transition begins during app loading, allowing developers to manage HTML elements for a smooth transition.
