What’s New in ARCore
summary
ARCore now runs on about 400 million devices and powers over 3,000 apps. Motion tracking robustness improves ~30%, plane finding cuts initial plane time ~50% in Google's Measure app, and tracking reports failure reasons. Augmented Faces yields a 468-point mesh for front cameras; Augmented Images boosts detection recall 15%, tracking precision 30%, and supports moving and multiple target images. New environmental HDR APIs (directional light, ambient spherical harmonics, cube map) use a TensorFlow‑lite model for 360° HDR lighting, and Scene Viewer launches AR from the web via Model Viewer with an "ar" tag.
