    Hi All,

    Does Ar Foundation have the ability to create persistent object anchors?

    These Anchors Don't need to be cloud based (like Google's cloud anchor points) - they can be stored locally on the device.

    I want to place a 3d object on my work desk, close my app, come back next day, open my app and for the 3d object to be where I left it.

    Is this an AR Foundation thing? Unity Mars thing? A coming soon thing?

    Thanks in advance,

    Lupus

    ARKit has a World Map feature that can store anchors locally.
