Google has come up with an SDK called ARCore to allow developers to make AR apps for Android smartphones.
The first phones to use the tool will be the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Google’s Pixel phone.
Apple says it will make an AR tool-set called ARKit available to developers in a fortnight when it launches iOS 11.
ARCore and ARKit allow developers to put digital information on-screen which is relevant to whatever the phone’s camera is pointed at.
It is thought that the technology could become useful for car windscreens and spectacles as sell as phones.
