CPU Architectures

  • Windows: x86, x86_64

  • Mac: x86_64

  • Android: armv7a, arm64-v8a

  • iOS: arm64

About Android arm64-v8a

EasyAR Sense provides arm64-v8a binaries. Developers need to choose whether to use it or not.

If the client Android system have 64bit subsystem available on arm64 chips, Android will check for the folder with the name of arm64-v8a and if that is available inside your apk, the system will use the 64bit binaries for all native libs.

So, there are two options for arm64-v8a binaries provided by EasyAR or other third parties or yourself,

  1. Remove all arm64-v8a binaries, and remove the arm64-v8a folder. In this case you will lose an opportunity to optimize certain features with arm64 architectures, but all functions should still work, because almost all Android devices do not drop armv7 compatibility at this time. This choice will give you a benefit for smaller size of apk.

  2. Make sure arm64-v8a binaries for EasyAR and all other libraries are available in your apk.

Please note if you are an Android ROM developer or working on system level or SOC level, or if you are working on some customized devices, the above description may not apply. And usually you would know better about your requirement.
