Install the WebXR Emulator Extension from extension store for your browser ( Firefox, Chrome).It includes the WebXR API polyfill so that it even works on browsers which do not natively support WebXR API for AR yet. As the following animation shows, you can test the application as if you run it on an emulated AR device in a virtual room. The WebXR Emulator Extension enables running WebXR AR applications on your desktop browser by emulating AR devices. Unfortunately you can’t run them on your desktop, even though the API is enabled, because your desktop doesn’t have the required hardware. You need AR compatible devices to play WebXR AR applications. Install ARCore and Chrome Beta, and then access the examples above. If you want to try on your android device now, you can use Chrome Android Beta. These are some WebXR AR examples you can try. Once it lands you will be able to play around with AR applications on compatible devices without installing anything. Support in other browsers is coming soon, too. Chrome 81 ( which was going to release March 17th but is now postponed) enables WebXR API for AR and Hit Test by default. The Immersive Web Working Group has been working on the WebXR API for AR to introduce a more open AR platform on the web. The AR market has the potential to be huge. You may have seen online shops which let you view their items in your room. The WebXR 1.0 API for VR has shipped.ĪR (Augmented Reality) is becoming popular thanks to the new platforms, ARCore and ARKit.

The WebXR Device API is an API which provides the interface to create immersive (VR and AR) applications on the web across a wide variety of XR devices.

Today we are happy to announce a new feature: AR support. In September we released the WebXR Emulator Extension which enables testing WebXR VR applications in your desktop browser. WebXR Emulator Extension AR support Takahiro Aoyagi - 26 March 2020
