ARKit – Not able to detect a plane

Question

I am not able to detect surface using ARKit. I have also added the image of the surface.

How to detect a surface with less texture accurately?

Answer 1

To successfully detect a horizontal or vertical plane using ARKit or RealityKit you need to track:

• surfaces with distinguished textures;
• in a well-lit environment;
• you must physically move around a room;

You do not need to track:

• surfaces with "poor" or repetitive textures;
• glare, reflective or refractive surfaces;
• transparent objects (like glass tables);

However, to overcome most of these limitations, you can use the iPad Pro with a LiDAR scanner. iPad Pro 2020 detects surfaces at unprecedented speed (at tens of nanoseconds) in a poorly-lit room.
