Show HN: ARKit Playground – Make ARKit Experiences in JS from Your Browser (opens in new tab)

Hi-

I worked on this along with some other people.

Here's what a demo looks like: https://i.makeagif.com/media/9-28-2017/gMnJTj.gif

You can try a really cool demo made with it here: https://expo.io/@nikki/dire-dire-ducks

It fills your room with water and has ducks swimming around. The sound changes if you dive underwater, and if you press the screen, the ducks will swim towards you. This is a video of what it looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EL1emCVtIw

And you can read more about it here: https://blog.expo.io/introducing-expo-ar-mobile-augmented-re...

So... A pink screen on my 6th generation iPod touch is the confirmation that ARkit doesnt work on this device (even with iOS11)

Isn't the above water music the Super Mario 64 water music theme? Also, really cool demo!

edit; oh I get the play on the title now.

This seriously makes mobile AR development a lot easier for anybody who doesn't want to go through the entire overhead of learning iOS. Amazing work!

This is incredible, going underwater is actually pretty awesome!
