Hola soy un ,

Uh

It's okay it could use an update

kAR Graphics ,

Easy to use, yet incredibly robust

You don't need to be a developer who went to school for programming or 3D development to use Lens Studio. It has a ton of pre-made templates and resources that you can start with, then once you get more experienced, you have the whole AR world at your fingertips! Must have for anyone interested in Augmented Reality
