Build basic iOS Augmented Reality features

[tedbarnett]

User should be able to:

• Aim camera at a nearby building (or wall)
• See the ground and wall planes "lit up" (highlighted in some way) to confirm that the iPhone sees those planes
• Attach a 3D (USDZ) object to that wall, so that it is connected to both the wall and the ground plane
• Move around in space and see the object from different angles
• The object should be "lit" based on the current lighting in the room (iOS AR feature)

Copy any common AR app (or Apple's own demo AR app) for a reference

Examples of current AR apps

Fectar - AR viewer. Lots of examples of objects in a space allowing user to walk around object. Most objects lack realistic lighting for the environment - possible to improve?

Sun seeker - app for Sun trajectory. Wondering if a similar database can be accessed to include a graphic (arc) of solar path over customer's pergola location?
