Updated: Jun 4

MultiSet Releases Android Native SDK for Enhanced AR Experiences

==================================================================


MultiSet releases Android Native SDK for our industry-leading Visual Positioning System (VPS), empowering Android developers with centimeter-level accurate spatial computing capabilities. This native Android implementation represents a significant leap forward in accessibility and performance. It features full support for Google Play Instant Apps to deliver friction-free AR experiences without requiring app installation.



MultiSet Android SDK

Native Android Implementation: Built for Performance


The new Android SDK has been architected specifically for the Android platform. It leverages Kotlin and modern development practices. This native-first approach delivers advantages that Android developers can immediately recognize:


  • Seamless ARCore Integration: Deep integration with Google's ARCore platform ensures optimal tracking performance.

  • Modern Architecture: Built with Kotlin coroutines, ViewModel, and lifecycle-aware components for better app performance.

  • Optimized Resource Usage: Efficient memory management minimizes battery consumption, enhancing user experience.

  • Material Design Compliance: UI components adhere to Android design guidelines for a consistent look and feel.


Instant Apps Support: Zero-Friction AR Experiences


The standout feature of MultiSet's Android SDK is its comprehensive support for Google Play Instant Apps. This integration transforms how users discover and interact with location-based AR content:


  • Instant Access: Users can experience AR content immediately by scanning QR codes or tapping NFC tags.

  • No Installation Required: Experiences load in seconds and stay within the 15MB Instant App limit.

  • Seamless Transition: There is a natural upgrade path to full app installation for engaged users.

  • URL-Addressable: AR experiences can be easily shared via standard web links.


This capability transforms AR into an ambient computing layer accessible anywhere. Retail stores can offer virtual try-ons, museums can provide interactive guides, and venues can deliver wayfinding—all without requiring app installation.


Real-World Applications Already in Production


Early adopters are deploying innovative solutions with the Android SDK. Here are some notable examples:


Retail Innovation


Major retailers are implementing in-store navigation with product visualization. Customers can find items and view them in their homes before purchase, all through Instant Apps triggered by in-store signage.


Smart Cities


Municipalities are introducing AR wayfinding systems in public spaces. This provides instant access to directions, historical information, and city services without requiring citizens to download dedicated apps.


Industrial Applications


Manufacturing facilities use the SDK for maintenance procedures. Technicians access step-by-step AR instructions just by pointing their devices at the equipment.


Entertainment Venues


Stadiums and concert halls offer interactive experiences, from seat finding to exclusive content, accessible instantly via QR codes on tickets.
