Integrating ARKit with Photo Capture for Measurement Apps

The synergy between ARKit and the iPhone camera is what makes tools like Wonder Ruler possible. Its AR measure feature captures the AR scene and freezes it as a photograph with embedded measurement data.

Integration points:

  • AVCaptureSession for photo capture
  • ARSCNView for AR scene rendering
  • CIImage for compositing measurements onto the camera feed
  • Core Graphics for annotation rendering

This seamless integration is what makes AR measure feel magical — measurements that stay with your photos forever.
