Apple at WWDC 2019 today made a series of augmented reality announcements headlined by ARKit 3.
ARKit 3 features a new immersive "People Occlusion" feature that allows virtual objects to be placed in front and behind people in real time, as Mojang demonstrated on stage with a preview of its augmented reality game Minecraft Earth.
Apple's new RealityKit SDK provides developers with tools for photorealistic rendering, environment and camera effects, animation, physics, and more.
Stay tuned for updates…

So far it has been pretty popular, we also early on set out to not be something meant to use for hours on end.. but for shorter timeframes.
