I would suspect CoreML would play an important role in scene identification, which could certainly be used in conjunction with ARKit, don't you think?

Microsoft is investing a lot in computer vision, I'll be interested to see what changes they make to the next HoloLens' vision capabilities. Plane finding seems almost as good in ARKit as it was on HoloLens when I was developing on it (albeit the environmental understanding is limited/non-existent in ARKit, which as you mentioned is a big part of the equation.)

Fortunately plane finding is pretty easy even with something as simple as RANSAC[0]. I'm sure there are better algorithms now but ransac has been around forever and is nearly trivial to implement. It just doesn't easily generalize to "Siri, find my car"

Have an email? Would like to connect regarding ARKit
