I tried using the camera app ``Outing AR'' that allows you to go out with your avatar in real life just by walking with your iPhone
When engaging in various activities on the Internet, many people use 2D or 3D avatars to act as virtual characters instead of their own images. By superimposing your avatar on the background taken with a camera, you can shoot a video that looks like you are actually taking a walk as an avatar.If you use the camera app ' Outing AR ', you can see a 3D avatar walking within the camera's field of view. So, I heard that you can enjoy the feeling of taking a walk together, so I tried it out.

When you walk with your iPhone, the avatar in the camera also walks. Therefore, it feels like an avatar is always walking in front of you.
The key to outing AR is the concept of depth. As shown in the screen below, when a person passes between the avatar and the camera, the avatar will be displayed so as to be hidden from the passerby.
When you turn the screen horizontally, the avatar will be displayed in an orientation that corresponds to the horizontal screen.
This is what it looks like when shooting in landscape mode. The avatar's shadow is also displayed, so shooting outdoors in sunlight will give you a stronger sense of being there.
