Recording EIF Data for Simulation Run Verification

The core of the simulation run is to record a high - quality EIF data. It is recommended that you follow the steps below for data collection.

How to Collect

Download and install the latest version of Mega Toolbox. Try to use an iPhone or an Android phone that supports ARCore to collect data in the target area.

Download Toolbox

Download and install the data collection tool application package, Mega ToolBox.

  • For iPhone users, search for Mega Toolbox in the App Store on your phone, and download and install the data collection tool.

  • For Android phones, download the Android Mega Toolbox installation package from the workflow tools on the EasyAR download page. After the download is complete, you can use adb install EasyARMegaToolbox_***.apk on your computer, or directly install the downloaded APK installation package on your phone.

Collection Process

Collection Precautions

  • Collect data within the image - capturing area.
