Record EIF data for simulation run verification

The core of simulation runs is recording a high-quality segment of EIF data. It is recommended that you follow the steps below for collection.

How to collect

Download and install the latest version of Mega Toolbox, preferably using an iPhone or an Android device that supports ARCore, and perform the collection in the target area.

Download the Toolbox

Download and install the data collection tool application package Mega ToolBox

• iPhone users can search for Mega Toolbox in the App Store, download and install the data collection tool.

• Android users can download the Android Mega Toolbox installation package from the development tools section on the EasyAR download page. After downloading, you can use adb install EasyARMegaToolbox_***.apk on your computer or directly install the downloaded apk package on your phone.

Acquisition process

• Open Toolbox and select Remote development simulation positioning EIF test data recording.

  

• After entering the EIF recording tool, fill in the file name (only English and numbers are supported), and then click the Enter button.

• Before entering the EIF recording mode, the camera should face a texture-rich area for initialization. After observing that the tracking status in the upper left corner of the panel changes to Tracking, point the camera toward the area where test data needs to be recorded.

  

• After the acquisition is completed, click the stop recording button to end the recording.

Collection notes

• Data should be collected within the designated image-capture area
• Test data can be recorded from a tourist's perspective
• Avoid sudden large turns or prolonged orientation toward featureless areas such as white walls or floors
• Each recording session is recommended not to exceed 10 minutes
• If you are using an AR Engine-supported phone, the tracking status may take 10~30 seconds to transition to the Tracking state

Data export

After you complete the simulated data collection on your phone, you need to export the collected EIF data.

Export android data

Connect the phone to the computer and enable file transfer mode on the phone. Navigate to the local file path Android/data/com.easyar.mega.toolbox/files/MegaStudio/FrameStream, then select the corresponding data file to export.

Export ios data

• Export using a mac computer

  1. Connect the iPhone to a Mac computer.

  2. Open the Finder application, click the phone icon, click Trust, then also click Trust on the phone.

     

  3. After trusting, click the File menu, locate the MegaStudio folder under the MegaToolbox App, and drag MegaStudio to the computer desktop. (Wait patiently when the file is large, ensuring the entire file is fully exported)

     

• Export using a windows computer

  1. Download iTunes on your Windows computer and install it.

  2. Connect the iPhone to the Windows computer and trust it.

     

  3. Click the phone button

     

  4. Click File Sharing, locate the MegaStudio folder under the MegaToolbox App, and click Save.

     

Next steps

After collection is complete, proceed to simulation testing.
