    Just want to ask, out of curiosity, does either AR Core or AR Kit has control point for their tracking system?

    FYI, control point is one of the way to tell where the exact position in real environment, so it will re-adjust the camera position with the "should be" position.

    Hi, Mr. KirillKuzyk, thank you for the answer!
    I have seen those, and actually tried the ARKit worldmap solution.
    Unfortunately, the available solution is not working very good at this moment.
    I tried about the worldmap, sometimes trying many times to go to the same place can either give us re-localization,
    or it will falsely create new localization.
    Haven't tried about the other two, but I think I need another solution.

    I'm thinking like using two or more real-world anchor, for example using visual marker/image.
    By looking at these, system able to tell where the exact position in real world, then it able to re-localization,
    not based on visually similar scene recognition, but by pre-defined ground truth position.
    This article was inspiring me: https://www.navvis.com/blog/how-slam-affects-the-accuracy-of-your-scan-and-how-to-improve-it

    I'm looking forward for your comment about this.
