Getting Started with AR Model

AR Model is a SpotLight app which allows the generation of Proxy models, for use outside of SpotLight. Users can render these models in a range of qualities and outputs, which allows them to use the models for a variety of purposes. This can then be used in social media campaigns, game engines, brochures, and in the vehicle entertainment system itself.

The Proxy Model User Guide provides a quick reference list of widely used AR apps and model viewers, including platform limitations and recommended AR model types available through AR Model.

Use Cases

Because of the nature of the Proxy models, they can be used in a really varied amount of ways, by a range of users from Developers, to Social Media Marketing teams, to Game designers.

Typical Uses

Users can create proxy models using AR Modelto include in Social Media campaigns, embedding models in apps like Snapchat, Instagram and TikTok.

Spark AR

Models can be used in Spark AR for a range of social media outputs, such as Instagram, Facebook and Metaverse uses. The file size limits for Instagram lens and Facebook lens are 5 and 10mb's respectively, so the quality of output in AR Model will need to be low to reflect them. Additionally, models can be used in Tiktok and Snapchat's similar lens applications.

Game Engines & 3D Modelling

Unlike the lens studios used for social media, 3D softwares like Blender and Maya and Game engines like Unreal can handle models of much higher file sizes output from AR Model. Once imported into the game engines they can be used for a range of reasons, such as in-car technology, such as reversing sensors etc.
