AR Samples not working

[Bradley-Newman-RF]

• Pixel XL 1
• Android P
• Chrome Canary with WebXR flags enabled.

Behavior:

• Load this page: https://immersive-web.github.io/webxr-samples/proposals/phone-ar.html
• Press 'Start AR'
• Grant access to camera.
• Button shows 'Exit AR' but nothing else, no camera view appears.

What are the requirements for these samples?

I reported this a a chromium bug a couple of weeks ago: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=918375

The response was that the WebXR API in Canary has changed and the samples have not been updated yet. The samples still work in Chrome Dev though.

Now the samples don't work in Chrome Dev too.
For me last working version was Chrome Dev 73.0.3643.0.

Samples also don't work on Edge for HoloLens.

Spec is undergoing lots of change. I doubt these samples will consistently work anywhere for the next few weeks/months

Now the samples don't seem to work in any chrome version (stable, beta, dev or canary).

@toji , please see the proposed fix in #39 . Test page with that patch applied is at https://klausw.github.io/webxr-samples/proposals/phone-ar.html .

Note that you need to enable two options in chrome://flags to make this work, WebXR Device API and WebXR AR Module. The AR-specific additional flags such as Hit Test and Plane Detection no longer enable the AR module as a side effect.

@aidinabedi The phone-ar sample should now work again on Chrome Canary.

@zim32 Do you know if your device is ARCore compatible? I don't see your specific phone in the Android docs but not if it's up to date. Good luck

Yeah, seems to be not ARCore compatible. Thanks for quick response
