March 2023 Updates – Version 2.4

Floorplan Auto Alignment

Creators can now upload a custom floorplan of their map in the Creator Portal and auto-align the floorplan through the AR scene in the app. The creator will place six floorplan pegs in the AR scene and on the 2D floorplan. The auto-alignment feature ensures that content placed in the map through the Portal or through the app will appear in the AR scene with precision.

Accuracy Indicators

The Accuracy Indication Dials at the top left of the screen displays the spatial accuracy range of 1 to 10. If tracking and AR accuracy is lost in the session, the dial number will decrease depending on the severity of tracking loss and prompt the user to navigate to a recharge station to scan the nearest access point. This feature enhances the visitor experience by ensuring that content and spatial accuracy are always optimized.

Dynamic Rotation for AR Content

Creators can choose whether images, videos, or Access Pointsare static or will dynamically rotate in the AR scene. Static content will face the position it is set in upon creation or editing. Dynamic content will always face the visitor as they move in the AR scene.
