Would want to learn more about their VPS system as it looked really cool on their demo! Hope to see a video on that soon. Thanks for your tutorials, not many ppl doing lightship tutorials out there

[@dilmerv]

Working on it ! Thanks for your feedback :)

[@bernhardvanrenssen3823]

Hi Dilmer. Great video as always! General question, would it be possible to store/download a mesh generated on the meshing app?

[@dilmerv]

Yes you can! But the mesh only as the texture data is currently not exposed by ARKit.

Is lightship better than AR foundation in terms on how good is tracks planes and keeping tracking. Like does it lose tracking like ar foundation?

do you need to learn linear algebra to become an augmented reality developer?

[@itayhilel2168]

no

[@dilmerv]

Not at all ;) it really depends on the project.

@@dilmerv ok thanks, by the way if my device(phone) doesn't support google ar core/ar foundation. how can i learn AR on my smartphone?

[@worldanime9884]

@@dilmerv because when I tried the application that I exported using ar foundation and ar core. the screen on my cellphone is always black screen. Although I have followed your video tutorial to solve it. but it still works. please advise what to do with my problem?

[@dilmerv]

Not a problem, currently you can use mock tools available with Lightship which allow you to do certain things such as plane detection, anchor placement, and meshing with the Unity editor. I would say use Lightship since AR Foundation currently doesn’t provide any tools like that and it will require that you have a device with AR support. Best Dilmer
