The document discusses updates to Layar SDK version 8.4.4, including bug fixes, the addition of video sequencing and support for beacons. It provides information on how the Layar SDK allows app developers to integrate augmented reality features like interactive content and managing layers through the Layar Creator. The updates allow for more advanced callbacks that give developers more control over the user experience, and the integration of beacons enables bringing geo-located layers indoors for more accurate indoor augmented reality experiences.

Advanced callbacks
We’ve added more callbacks that give you more control over
the look-and-feel of your experience.
For Geo Layers, you can now opt to remove the compass and
the messages shown at the top which usually indicate the
number of results found nearby.

Beacons
•Accurate location - based AR experience (no need to
rely on GPS only)
•Bring Geo layers indoors
•Choose between the provider that best matches your
needs (iBeacons, Sensorberg, Estimote…)
•SDK itself does not include any providers itself, but
allows for easy integration

Solution with beacons
You no longer need to rely solely on the
built-in GPS of the user’s device to get
location data.
Now you can hook into any location
provider that you choose.
For example, you can use iBeacons to
create a more accurate location-based
AR experience when indoors.
