Platform Requirements¶
Platform Support¶
Please refer to EasyAR Sense EasyAR Sense Platform Requirements and Unity System requirements.
About Android arm64-v8a
For Unity, Android arm64-v8a is not supported by Unity’s mono scripting backend. IL2CPP need to be enabled for it.
About iOS armv7 and Universal
Only arm64 Architecture is supported on iOS. Armv7 and Universal Architectures are not supported.
About Mac Apple silicon
Note
EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin supports Apple silicon natively. The plugin can work properly in Unity Editors built natively for Apple silicon. But the apps built using Unity Editors may not work as expected when you build for “Apple silicon” or “Intel 64-bit + Apple silicon” in some Unity versions. This seems to be Unity bugs when handling native plugin. When you find your app not work on Mac, and its show error like “Fail to load EasyAR library” or “DllNotFoundException: EasyAR assembly”, you should ask Unity or Unity community for help.
Unity Compatibility¶
Unity 2021.3 or later versions is required.
In general, EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin do not rely very much on changing part of Unity APIs, so if there are newer versions of Unity release, EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin will most likely work smoothly on those versions.
Video recording feature is not supported on iOS.
Unity 6 is fully (including URP 17+ Render Graph) supported.
Graphics API¶
EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin use Unity render pipeline directly, all graphics API in Unity is supported by nature.
Note
Exception: due to internal implementation of EasyAR Sense, the video recording feature will only work in certain conditions, when using OpenGLES2 or OpenGLES3 on Android.
Scriptable Render Pipeline¶
The Plugin support Universal Render Pipeline (URP) 7.0.0 or later.
The Plugin does NOT support High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP).
Attention
Announcement for Unity 6 URP 17+ render graph support
Although EasyAR is supporting Unity 6 URP 17+ render graph now, there are still unresolved issues at Unity side. You can try URP compatibility mode if you find anything unusual.
Some issues are fixed in the latest Unity versions, suggest to use unity 6000.2 or later.
Known issues for URP non-compatibility mode includes,
[unresolved] Glitches and artifacts are observed on iOS/Mac when you retrieve camera texture from EasyAR (as the sample ImageTracking_Coloring3D and Workflow_FrameSource_CameraDevice does). We have reproduced this issue using pure Unity packages and reported to Unity: Glitches on iOS with AR Camera Image Rendering (URP 17 render graph). Please follow Unity Issue UUM-87787 update or future Unity release notes for further infomation.
For all Unity 6.x version, there is partial mitigation measure in EasyAR, default on.
For Unity 6000.2.0f1 and later, you can also set Render Scale to a value not inside 0.96-1.05 in your Universal Render Pipeline Asset to workaround.
[Fixed in Unity 6.2 (Verified), has workaround in EasyAR (default on)] The camera image makes the scene objects rendering unpredictable on Windows DX11.
It is suggested to check updates in Unity issue links and give feedback to Unity directly.
WebGL¶
EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin does not support Unity WebGL.
EasyAR Sense features and APIs cannot be used in Unity WebGL, but you can still use EasyAR cloud services by directly calling EasyAR CRS or other service APIs. You need to call service API directly using Unity’s network APIs, and you do not need EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin in this kind of use.
Unity AR Foundation Compatibility¶
EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin support AR Foundation 5 or later. Only Unity.XR.CoreUtils.XROrigin is supported, do not support ARSessionOrigin.
Attention
AR Foundation support is implemented as EasyAR Sense custom camera. EasyAR Sense will stop responding after a fixed and limited time per run if trial product (personal license, trial XR license, or trial Mega services, etc.) is being used with custom camera or HMD. There is no limitation when using a paid license for EasyAR Sense and paid EasyAR Mega service.
ARCore Compatibility¶
EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin has ARCore SDK 1.46.0 inside the package, so ARCore (Google Play Services for AR) 1.46.0 or later are supported. Whether lower version of ARCore service is supported depends on Google’s compatibility. If ARCore SDK from AR Foundation or other ARCore SDK distribution is used, ARCore compatibility will be determined by those frameworks.
This configuration must be set in Unity if ARCore is enabled,
Use IL2CPP and include arm64-v8a in the build process. The ARCore will not work correctly on arm64 devices with armv7 only build. This configuration is not enforced, but a warning message will be generated if not satisfied.
Huawei AR Engine Compatibility¶
EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin has integrated AREngine SDK 3.7.0.3, and support at least AREngine 2.18 and above. Please refer to AREngine officialy documents for detailed compatibility infomation.
EasyAR Sense Unity Plugin does not support Huawei AR Engine Unity SDK which is not maintained officially by Huawei right now, or any other similar third-party SDKs.
Attention
AR Engine support is implemented as EasyAR Sense custom camera. EasyAR Sense will stop responding after a fixed and limited time per run if trial product (personal license, trial XR license, or trial Mega services, etc.) is being used with custom camera or HMD. There is no limitation when using a paid license for EasyAR Sense and paid EasyAR Mega service.
