This is the first time I’ve seen an AR experience launched from the browser. I expected to be kicked to the App Store to download Apple’s shopping app when I clicked See it in AR, but instead the AirPods instantly showed up on my desk (without prompting for camera access even). When did this capability get added?
Edit: looks like this is powered by Apple and Pixar’s USDZ file format for sharing compressed 3D models. I’m guessing it overlays the model over the built-in camera app, so Safari never asks for permission to use my camera.
