AR VR App Development

AR (Augmented Reality) overlays digital content onto the real world through a device camera, while VR (Virtual Reality) creates fully immersive digital environments via headsets. Junkies Coder develops AR/VR experiences for iOS (ARKit), Android (ARCore), Meta Quest, HTC Vive, Microsoft HoloLens, Apple Vision Pro, WebXR (browser-based), and cross-platform solutions using Unity and Unreal Engine.

AR/VR delivers measurable ROI across retail (virtual try-on, in-store navigation), real estate (virtual property tours), healthcare (surgical simulation, anatomy training), manufacturing & field service (AR-guided maintenance), education & e-learning (immersive classrooms), architecture & construction (BIM visualization), and enterprise training (safety drills, onboarding simulations). We help you identify the exact use case that delivers the fastest return for your industry.

AR (Augmented Reality) adds digital elements to the live real world — best for retail, navigation, and field service. VR (Virtual Reality) creates a fully digital environment requiring a headset — best for training simulations, virtual tours, and gaming. MR (Mixed Reality) blends digital and physical objects that interact with each other — best for enterprise collaboration and HoloLens applications. Our team will recommend the right approach based on your use case, target audience, and hardware constraints during a free discovery session.

Most of our AR projects are mobile-first — running directly on iPhone and Android cameras using ARKit and ARCore without any additional hardware. Users point their phone at a real-world surface and interact with 3D models, product visualizations, or spatial UI elements instantly. This is the most cost-effective AR delivery method and requires zero hardware investment from your users.

A mobile AR app (product visualizer, marker-based experience) typically takes 6–12 weeks. A full VR training simulation or immersive enterprise experience takes 3–8 months depending on 3D asset complexity, interaction design, and platform requirements. Apple Vision Pro apps currently follow a 10–20 week timeline due to visionOS's spatial computing requirements. We always provide a milestone-based project plan before any work begins.

Our AR/VR stack covers: ARKit (iOS), ARCore (Android), Apple Vision Pro (visionOS, RealityKit, SwiftUI), Unity 3D (cross-platform AR/VR), Unreal Engine (photorealistic VR), WebXR & Three.js (browser-based AR/VR), Meta XR SDK (Quest), OpenXR standard, MRTK for HoloLens/MR, and Blender/Maya for custom 3D asset creation and optimization.

Yes. Our developers regularly integrate AR/VR experiences with product databases, e-commerce platforms (Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce), ERP systems (SAP, Oracle), and custom backend APIs. For retail AR, this means your 3D models automatically update when your product catalog changes. For enterprise VR training, this means simulation content pulls from your live operational data.

AR/VR development at Junkies Coder starts from $12,000 for a focused mobile AR experience (product visualizer or marker-based app). Full VR training simulations or multi-platform immersive applications typically range from $30,000 to $100,000+ depending on 3D asset volume, interaction complexity, and platform count. We provide detailed scope-based estimates — no vague ranges without understanding your requirements first.

We handle both. Our in-house 3D artists create photorealistic models, environments, and character assets from reference images, CAD files, or product specifications. If you already have 3D assets, we optimize them for real-time AR/VR rendering (polygon reduction, texture compression, LOD setup) to ensure smooth performance on mobile and headset hardware.
