Captured from Pixel_9 AVD (SwiftShader GPU, API 35) during daily maintenance sweep. All 4 non-AR samples render correctly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
AR samples cannot be tested locally on Apple Silicon Macs because: - The Emulator only ships the darwin-aarch64 QEMU binary - ARCore's emulator APK is x86-only (x86 + x86_64 ABIs) - ARM64 Google Play system images expose the back camera as ID "1" instead of "0", causing ARCore session creation to fail Fix: run AR emulator tests on GitHub Actions (x86_64 Ubuntu with KVM) using the official ARCore x86_64 emulator APK + virtualscene camera. Screenshots are uploaded as CI artifacts after each run. Also consolidates the two build steps into a single ./gradlew assembleDebug (adopting the cleaner approach from PR #663 by @hannesa2).

AR samples cannot be tested locally on Apple Silicon: - darwin-aarch64 QEMU only; ARCore emulator APK is x86-only - ARM64 system images expose back camera as "1"/"10", not "0" - ARCore hardcodes camera ID "0" during session creation AR screenshots come from the ar-emulator CI job (x86_64 Ubuntu + KVM).

The first CI run captured ANR crash dialogs instead of AR samples. Root cause: emulator launcher wasn't fully settled before launching apps. Fixes: - Add 15s settle time + screen unlock after emulator boot - Dismiss any ANR dialogs before installing/launching - Increase per-sample wait to 20s for ARCore session init - Add ar-augmented-image to the screenshot run Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The for loop used bash-specific syntax but the runner uses /bin/sh. Replace with explicit keyevent repetitions and add shebang. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The previous script built but never installed the AR sample APKs, so am start captured the home screen instead of the running app. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The Pixel Launcher ANR dialog was covering the AR samples. ARCore itself works correctly — the fix is simply to stop the launcher process before launching each sample app. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
All 3 AR samples launch and initialize an ARCore session correctly. Camera background is white (SwiftShader headless can't render the virtualscene texture) but "Move your phone slowly to detect a surface" confirms the AR session is active and plane detection is running.

KTX1Loader.createIndirectLight() and createSkybox() now return bundle objects (IndirectLightBundle / SkyboxBundle) instead of the raw Filament types directly. Extract .indirectLight and .skybox from the bundles in SceneFactories and EnvironmentLoader. All 10 .filamat files recompiled with matc from the v1.70.0 tools archive (new material version required per Filament release notes).
