Won’t lie, feels strange picking such a specific topic like lighting and shadows for my first piece of writing on augmented reality. It feels like I should be writing about all the future implications of the tech, about persistence and how we’re all going to share the same experience, or about how digital goods are going to shake up retail harder than Amazon. Those are fine topics for another day, but I’ve been stoked about lighting in augmented reality, so that’s where I’m going to start.

These scenes were shot in real-time on my iPhone X and feature ARKit’s Light Estimation. More on that later.
