Apple is diving into the world of augmented reality. AR Kit is Apple's new developer platform that allows programmers to build apps that blend the real world with digital objects. It's due out later this year in iOS 11. AR Kit supports Unity, Unreal and SceneKit -- opening up the worlds of AR game development and movie-making -- and it offers motion tracking, plus plane, lighting and scale estimations.
Since AR Kit will be available on iPads and iPhones, Apple CEO Tim Cook claims it will be the world's largest AR platform. Compare it to Google Tango, for example: Google doesn't automatically include Tango on every Android device; instead, devices manufacturers must choose to include it.
