    Returns void

enterXRInitMode

  • Experimental

    Enter the XR initialization mode. The initialization mode is used as an entry point for model-based tracking. It unanchors any previously anchored model and starts the model-based tracking process. In this mode, the user can align the model with the real object (snapping). When the model is snapped, the anchored value will be set to true which will trigger a XRStateChangedEvent. By that, the init mode gets exited and the model is anchored to the real object. The model now gets tracked and moves with the device.

    Please note, that this method should only be called if the XR system has the SUPPORTS_MODEL_TRACKING capability.

    Parameters

    • Optional xrInitOptions: XRInitOptions

      The options for the XR initialization mode

    Returns Promise<void>

    Returns a Promise which resolved when the operation was successful or rejects in an error case

    In a model-based tracking scenario, after a successful tracking session, the learned initialization data can be exported with this function and stored as a template for later.

    This method is only available if the XR system has the SUPPORTS_MODEL_TRACKING capability.

    The acquired data can be imported via importXRInitTemplate function.

    Returns Promise<string>

    Returns a Promise which contains the base64 encoded initialization template data when the operation was successful or rejects in an error case.

importXRInitTemplate

  • Experimental

    Imports an initialization template for model-based tracking.

    In a model-based tracking scenario, initialization templates are captured during the tracking process. This initialization data is linked to previously visited viewpoints along the traveled camera path. Once the tracking is lost the templates are used to quickly reinitialize from similar viewpoints without the user having to align the line model with the real object.

    Once the initialization template data is imported, it will persist until enterXRInitMode with resetInitTemplate set to true is called.

    This method is only available if the XR system has the SUPPORTS_MODEL_TRACKING capability.

    The input data can be aquired via the exportXRInitTemplate method.
