Summary

In this project, you’ll create an AR app that makes use of plane detection technology. 
You can use plane detection to build an approximate understanding of your surrounding physical environment in AR: the floor, the walls, and any large flat surface, like tables or couches. 
Plane detection is extremely useful in AR applications. Users are often asked to place objects on real surfaces in their environment, which helps those objects feel like they are really there. 
In this first tutorial, you will set up a new scene in your Unity project. Then you will configure your scene to detect planes in your environment.
