WebXR Integration

Integrate MultiSet VPS localization with your Web apps

Build AR web experiences with precise indoor localization using the MultiSet VPS WebXR SDK.

To try WebAR sample localization, open the developer portal in Chrome browser for Android, navigate to the Maps section and click on the AR button

Prerequisites

• Node.js 16+

• AR-capable Android device with ARCore support

• HTTPS connection (required for WebXR APIs)

• Chrome browser with WebXR support

Installation

npm install @multisetai/vps three

Configuration

Get your credentials from the MultiSet Dashboard:

1. Client ID & Secret - Found under Credentials section

2. Map Code - Found in the Maps section (e.g., MAP_XXXXXXXXXX)

Quick Start

Step 1: Initialize the Client

import { MultisetClient, WebxrController } from '@multisetai/vps';

const client = new MultisetClient({
  clientId: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID',
  clientSecret: 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET',
  code: 'MAP_XXXXXXXXXX',
  mapType: 'map', // or 'map-set' for MapSets
});

Step 2: Authorize and Set Up WebXR

// Authorize with MultiSet API
await client.authorize();

// Initialize WebXR controller
const controller = new WebxrController({
  client,
  canvas: document.getElementById('canvas')
});
await controller.initialize();

// Access Three.js scene to add your AR content
const scene = controller.getScene();

Step 3: Capture Frames for Localization

// During active AR session, capture frame to get pose
const result = await controller.captureFrame();

if (result) {
  console.log('Position:', result.position); // { x, y, z }
  console.log('Rotation:', result.rotation); // { x, y, z, w }
  console.log('Confidence:', result.confidence);
}

Key Components

MultisetClient

Handles authentication and API communication:

• authorize() - Exchanges credentials for access token

• localize() - Submits camera frame for localization

• getMapDetails() - Retrieves map metadata

WebxrController

Manages WebXR session and Three.js integration:

• initialize() - Sets up renderer, camera, and AR session

• getScene() - Returns Three.js scene for adding AR content

• captureFrame() - Captures frame and returns localization result

• dispose() - Cleans up resources

Localization Response

The captureFrame() method returns:

Field	Type	Description
position	{x, y, z}	3D position in map coordinates
rotation	{x, y, z, w}	Quaternion rotation
confidence	number	Localization confidence score
