What's new in Google AR
summary
ARCore now runs on over 1.2 billion devices and reports concrete improvements: motion tracking startup is 17% faster and lost-tracking events drop 15%, while ML-driven tracking fills gaps when the camera is occluded. Depth initializes ~15% faster with 95% depth coverage comparable to hardware, plus long range depth 20 meters (and dual‑camera support on Pixel 4/6) so occlusion and interactions work outdoors. A new ARCore Geospatial API uses VPS, Street View and ML to place persistent geospatial anchors worldwide for Android and iOS.
