Of all the new stuff in the
iOS 12 beta, the one that probably best demonstrates
Apple's big push into augmented reality is the
Measure app.
Announced at
WWDC 2018,
Measure is a default Apple app (like Voice Memos and Map) that will come to all iPhones in the fall. It makes use of
ARKit, Apple toolkit for developing AR-driven apps, and uses the iPhone's camera to compute the dimensions of objects seen on the screen. Simply hold up your iPhone to an object, tap the endpoints of the thing you want to measure, and the app will figure out the measurements.
