-Reality Accelerator Toolkit is a WebXR utilities library designed to simplify the integration of mixed reality features in [WebXR](https://immersiveweb.dev/) applications. It is currently compatible with the [three.js](https://threejs.org/) 3D library and aims to bridge the gap between low-level WebXR APIs and higher-level APIs provided by three.js. The library is built with the intent to be extensible and compatible with other 3D libraries in the future. It is designed to manage detected planes, anchors, and real-world hit test targets, and to automatically translate them to Object3D instances in the three.js scene, making it easier for developers to access and utilize them.
+The Reality Accelerator Toolkit is a comprehensive WebXR utilities library that simplifies the integration of mixed reality features in WebXR applications. Compatible with the [three.js](https://threejs.org/) 3D library, it bridges the gap between the low-level WebXR APIs and the higher-level APIs offered by three.js. Designed for extensibility, it enables the management of detected planes, meshes, anchors, and real-world hit test targets, translating them seamlessly to Object3D instances in the three.js scene.
## Features
-- 🚀 Seamless integration with three.js
-- 🌐 Automatic tracking and updating of detected planes and anchors
-- 🎯 Real-world hit test target translation to Object3D instances in the three.js scene
-- 🛠️ Extensible design for future compatibility with other 3D libraries
+- 🚀 Seamless integration with three.js for enhanced 3D application development.
+- 🌐 Automatic detection and update of planes, meshes and anchors in the scene.
+- 🎯 Translation of real-world hit test targets to Object3D instances in three.js.
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
-three.js (latest version recommended)
+- **Peer dependency**: three.js (latest version recommended): [three.js Documentation](https://threejs.org/docs/)
### Installation
-Install the package via NPM:
+To install the package via NPM, run:
```bash
$ npm install ratk
```
-### Usage
+## Usage
+
+Each section below details how to use different features of the toolkit.
+
+### RATK Setup
+
+1. **Setting Up AR Button**: Request a WebXR session with specified features.
+
+```js
+import { ARButton } from 'ratk';
+const renderer = /* Three.js WebGLRenderer */;
+const arButton = document.getElementById('ar-button');
+
+ARButton.convertToARButton(arButton, renderer, {
+ sessionInit: {
+ requiredFeatures: ['hit-test', 'plane-detection', 'mesh-detection', 'anchors'],
+ optionalFeatures: [],
+ },
+});
+```
+
+2. **Initializing RATK**: Integrate RATK's root object with your scene. Update it in the render loop.
```js
// Import the library
import { RealityAccelerator } from 'ratk';
-
-// Create a new Reality Accelerator instance from three.js WebXRManager
const ratk = new RealityAccelerator(renderer.xr);
-
-// Add all tracked plane and anchor objects to three.js scene
+const scene = /* Three.js Scene object */;
scene.add(ratk.root);
-// Update the Reality Accelerator in your render loop
-render() {
- ratk.update();
+function render() {
+ ratk.update();
}
```

-### API Reference

-API documentation can be found [here](https://meta-quest.github.io/reality-accelerator-toolkit).
+### Anchors
+
+- **Creating Anchors**: Define position and orientation, then attach objects.
+
+ ```js
+ const ratk = /* RealityAccelerator instance */;
+ const anchorPosition = new Vector3(1, 2, 3);
+ const anchorQuaternion = new Quaternion(0, 0, 0, 1);
+
+ ratk.createAnchor(anchorPosition, anchorQuaternion, isPersistent)
+ .then((anchor /* RATK Anchor object extends Object3D */) => {
+ // Attach a new THREE.Mesh to the anchor
+ anchor.add(new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material));
+ });
+ ```
+
+- **Recovering Anchors**: Access persistent anchors from previous sessions.
+
+ ```js
+ ratk.restorePersistentAnchors().then(() => {
+ ratk.anchors.forEach((anchor) => {
+ // Process each recovered anchor
+ anchor.add(new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material));
+ });
+ });
+ ```
+
+### Planes
+
+- **Processing Planes**: Define a hook to handle new planes.
+
+ ```js
+ ratk.onPlaneAdded = (plane /* extends Object3D */) => {
+ if (plane.semanticLabel === 'wall art') {
+ const mesh = plane.planeMesh; // Three.js Plane Mesh
+ mesh.material = new MeshBasicMaterial(/_ parameters _/);
+ // Additional plane processing
+ }
+ };
+ ```
+
+- Alternatively, access planes directly from the RATK instance:
+
+ ```js
+ ratk.planes.forEach((plane) => {
+ // Process each plane
+ });
+ ```
+
+### Meshes
+
+- **Processing Meshes**: Define a hook to handle new meshes.
+
+ ```js
+ ratk.onMeshAdded = (rmesh /* extends Object3D */) => {
+ const meshMesh = rmesh.meshMesh; /* reconstructed Three.js Mesh */
+ meshMesh.material = new MeshBasicMaterial(...);
+ meshMesh.geometry.computeBoundingBox();
+
+ // put a text label on top of the mesh
+ const semanticLabel = new Text();
+ meshMesh.add(semanticLabel);
+ semanticLabel.text = mesh.semanticLabel;
+ semanticLabel.sync();
+ semanticLabel.position.y = meshMesh.geometry.boundingBox.max.y;
+ };
+ ```
+
+- Alternatively, access meshes directly from the RATK instance:
+
+ ```js
+ ratk.meshes.forEach((rmesh) => {
+ // Process each mesh
+ });
+ ```
+
+### Hit Testing
+
+- **Controller Hit-Testing**: Create HitTestTarget from controller with offset transform
+
+ ```js
+ const ratk = /* RealityAccelerator instance */;
+ const offsetPosition = new Vector3(0, 0, 0);
+ const offsetQuaternion = new Quaternion(0, 0, 0, 1);
+
+ ratk
+ .createHitTestTargetFromControllerSpace(
+ handedness,
+ offsetPosition,
+ offsetQuaternion,
+ )
+ .then((hitTestTarget /* extends Object3D */) => {
+ hitTestTarget.add(
+ new Mesh(...),
+ );
+ });
+ ```
+
+- Alternatively, conduct hit-testing from viewer space:
+
+ ```js
+ ratk.createHitTestTargetFromViewerSpace(
+ offsetPosition,
+ offsetQuaternion,
+ ).then(...);
+ ```
