I'm working on an application with Arkit. There are many 3D models and the size is big in my app. Can I get these models out of another server (outside sites)? I'm new on swift, I can't seem to find anything on loading a 3d model from a web server.
is it enough to change the model path there? Thank you
func loadModel() {
guard let virtualObjectScene = SCNScene(named: "\(modelName).\(fileExtension)", inDirectory: "Models.scnassets/\(modelName)") else {
return
}
let wrapperNode = SCNNode()
for child in virtualObjectScene.rootNode.childNodes {
let defaults = UserDefaults.standard
wrapperNode.addChildNode(child)
}
self.addChildNode(wrapperNode)
}
All code:
import UIKit
import SceneKit
import ARKit
class VirtualObject: SCNNode {
var modelName: String = ""
var fileExtension: String = ""
var thumbImage: UIImage!
var title: String = ""
var viewController: ViewController?
override init() {
super.init()
self.name = "Virtual object root node"
}
init(modelName: String, fileExtension: String, thumbImageFilename: String, title: String) {
super.init()
self.name = "Virtual object root node"
self.modelName = modelName
self.fileExtension = fileExtension
self.thumbImage = UIImage(named: thumbImageFilename)
self.title = title
}
required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
}
func loadModel() {
guard let virtualObjectScene = SCNScene(named: "\(modelName).\(fileExtension)", inDirectory: "Models.scnassets/\(modelName)") else {
return
}
let wrapperNode = SCNNode()
for child in virtualObjectScene.rootNode.childNodes {
let defaults = UserDefaults.standard
wrapperNode.addChildNode(child)
}
self.addChildNode(wrapperNode)
}
func unloadModel() {
self.removeFromParentNode()
for child in self.childNodes {
child.removeFromParentNode()
}
}
func translateBasedOnScreenPos(_ pos: CGPoint, instantly: Bool, infinitePlane: Bool) {
guard let controller = viewController else {
return
}
let result = controller.worldPositionFromScreenPosition(pos, objectPos: self.position, infinitePlane: infinitePlane)
controller.moveVirtualObjectToPosition(result.position, instantly, !result.hitAPlane)
}
}
extension VirtualObject {
static func isNodePartOfVirtualObject(_ node: SCNNode) -> Bool {
if node.name == "Virtual object root node" {
return true
}
if node.parent != nil {
return isNodePartOfVirtualObject(node.parent!)
}
return false
}
static let availableObjects: [VirtualObject] = [
Anatomy()
