## Components

### 1. AR Service (`ar_service.dart`)

**Purpose**: Central service for managing AR scene state and operations

**Key Responsibilities**:
- Scene state management
- Object placement and manipulation
- Gesture recognition
- Plane detection management
- State notifications via ChangeNotifier

**Main Methods**:
- `placeObject()` - Place 3D model on detected plane
- `handleRotation()` - Rotate object via gesture
- `handlePinch()` - Scale object via pinch gesture
- `handleDrag()` - Move object via drag gesture
- `simulateSurfaceDetection()` - Simulate AR plane detection

### 2. AR Models

#### ArObject (`ar_object.dart`)
Represents a 3D object in AR space with transformation properties.

**Properties**:
- `id`: Unique identifier
- `modelPath`: Path to GLB/GLTF file
- `position`: 3D coordinates (Vector3)
- `rotation`: Rotation in radians (Vector3)
- `scale`: Scale factor (double)
- `isVisible`: Visibility state

**Methods**:
- `updatePosition()` - Update position
- `updateRotation()` - Update rotation
- `updateScale()` - Update scale
- `rotate()` - Apply rotation delta
- `move()` - Apply position offset
- `reset()` - Reset to initial state

#### ArPlane (`ar_plane.dart`)
Represents a detected AR plane/surface.

**Properties**:
- `id`: Plane identifier
- `center`: Center position (Vector3)
- `normal`: Surface normal (Vector3)
- `extent`: Plane dimensions (Vector2)
- `type`: Plane type (horizontal_up, horizontal_down, vertical)
- `isTracked`: Tracking status

**Methods**:
- `containsPoint()` - Check if point is on plane
- `getRandomPointOnPlane()` - Get random surface point

#### ArScene (`ar_scene.dart`)
Represents the complete AR scene state.

**Properties**:
- `detectedPlanes`: List of detected surfaces
- `objects`: List of placed objects
- `selectedObject`: Currently selected object
- `isSurfaceDetectionActive`: Detection status

**Methods**:
- `addPlane()` / `removePlane()` - Plane management
- `addObject()` / `removeObject()` - Object management
- `selectObject()` - Select object
- `clearScene()` - Clear all AR content

### 3. AR View Screen (`ar_view_screen.dart`)

**Screens**:
1. **Scanning Screen** - Shows while detecting surfaces
2. **Placing Screen** - Shows when objects are placed
3. **Manipulation Screen** - Allows gesture-based interaction

**UI Elements**:
- Top bar with destination info and detection status
- Center display (scanner animation or object visualization)
- Status bar showing plane and object counts
- Bottom controls for object placement and manipulation

**Gesture Support**:
- **Pan**: Rotate object (horizontal) or move vertically
- **Pinch**: Scale object
- **Tap**: Place object or select object

### 4. Utilities (`ar_utils.dart`)

**ArUtils Class**:
- Math operations (degrees ↔ radians conversion)
- 3D vector operations
- Ray-plane intersection
- Angle normalization
- Performance metrics tracking

**ArPerformanceMetrics Class**:
- Frame time tracking
- FPS calculation
- Performance monitoring

## Data Flow

### Object Placement Flow

```
User taps "Place Object"
       ↓
Check for detected planes
       ↓
Get random point on plane
       ↓
Create ArObject instance
       ↓
Add to ArScene
       ↓
Select object automatically
       ↓
Notify UI (ListenableBuilder)
       ↓
UI renders object
```

### Gesture Handling Flow

```
User performs gesture (pan/pinch/drag)
       ↓
Gesture detector captures movement
       ↓
Calculate delta/scale
       ↓
Call ArService method
       ↓
Update selected object
       ↓
Notify listeners
       ↓
UI rebuilds with new transformation
```

## Integration Guide

### 1. Update pubspec.yaml

```yaml
dependencies:
  ar_flutter_plugin: ^0.7.3
  vector_math: ^2.1.4
  provider: ^6.4.0
```

Run `flutter pub get`

### 2. Android Configuration

Ensure AndroidManifest.xml includes:
```xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera.ar" android:required="true" />
<meta-data android:name="com.google.ar.core" android:value="required" />
```

### 3. Runtime Permissions

The app requires camera permission at runtime on Android 6+:

```dart
// Handled by ar_flutter_plugin
// Request camera permission before launching AR view
```

### 4. Navigation

From Detail Screen → AR Screen:

```dart
Navigator.pushNamed(
  context, 
  '/ar',
  arguments: destination,  // Pass destination object
)
```

## Usage Examples

### Initialize AR Service

```dart
final destination = DestinationService.byId('tumpak-sewu');
final arService = ArService(destination: destination);
```

### Place an Object

```dart
arService.placeObject(
  objectId: 'waterfall_1',
  modelPath: 'assets/models/waterfall.glb',
  objectName: 'Tumpak Sewu Waterfall',
)
```

### Rotate Object

```dart
arService.rotateObject(0.1); // Rotate by 0.1 radians
```

### Scale Object

```dart
arService.zoomIn();   // Multiply scale by 1.2
arService.zoomOut();  // Divide scale by 1.2
```

### Clear Scene

```dart
arService.clearScene(); // Remove all objects and planes
```

## 3D Model Integration

### Supported Formats
- GLB (recommended, binary format)
- GLTF (with separate assets)

### Model Requirements
- **Polygon Count**: 10,000-50,000 triangles
- **File Size**: Under 10-15 MB
- **Textures**: Compressed (WebP/ASTC preferred)
- **Optimization**: Mobile-optimized materials

### Adding New Models

1. Create/download 3D model (GLB or GLTF)
2. Optimize for mobile performance
3. Place in `assets/models/`
4. Update `destination_service.dart`:
   ```dart
   arModelPath: 'assets/models/your_model.glb',
   ```
5. Update `pubspec.yaml`:
   ```yaml
   assets:
     - assets/models/your_model.glb
   ```

### Model Optimization Pipeline

```
Raw Model
    ↓
Cleanup (remove unnecessary geometry)
    ↓
Decimation (reduce polygon count)
    ↓
Texture Baking
    ↓
Export as GLB (compressed)
    ↓
Test in AR
```

## Error Handling

### ARCore Not Supported

When ARCore is not available:
1. Error message displayed to user
2. Fallback option to return to destination detail
3. No AR functionality attempted

### Model Loading Failures

When model file is missing or corrupted:
1. Error logged to console
2. User notified via snackbar
3. UI remains responsive

### Plane Detection Timeout

If plane not detected within timeout:
1. Continue surface detection
2. Show instruction message
3. Allow user to move device

## Performance Optimization

### For Mobile Devices

1. **Model Optimization**
   - Keep polygon count under 50k
   - Use compressed textures
   - Single material per model when possible

2. **Scene Management**
   - Limit to 1-2 placed objects per scene
   - Disable off-screen object rendering
   - Clean up removed objects immediately

3. **Gesture Handling**
   - Throttle gesture updates (16ms minimum)
   - Batch transformation updates
   - Avoid real-time physics calculations

4. **Memory Management**
   - Preload models on destination selection
   - Clear scene when exiting AR
   - Dispose services properly

## Testing

### Unit Tests

```dart
test('ArObject position update', () {
  final obj = ArObject(
    id: 'test',
    modelPath: 'path',
    name: 'Test',
  );
  
  final newPos = Vector3(1, 2, 3);
  obj.updatePosition(newPos);
  
  expect(obj.position, equals(newPos));
});
```

### Integration Tests

```dart
testWidgets('AR view displays placing screen', (WidgetTester tester) async {
  await tester.pumpWidget(const ArViewScreen());
  expect(find.text('Ready to place object'), findsOneWidget);
});
```

## Debugging

### Enable AR Debug Mode

```dart
ArDebugInfo.getDebugInfo(
  planeCount: arService.planeCount,
  objectCount: arService.objectCount,
  isSurfaceDetecting: arService.isSurfaceDetecting,
);
```

### Performance Monitoring

```dart
final metrics = ArPerformanceMetrics();
metrics.recordFrameTime(16); // 16ms frame time
print('FPS: ${metrics.getCurrentFps()}');
```

### Logging

```dart
ArUtils.logArOperation('Place Object', 'Object placed at (1,2,3)');
```

## Troubleshooting

### Issue: Objects not appearing

**Causes**:
- Model path incorrect
- Model file missing from assets
- Plane not detected yet

**Solution**:
- Verify path in destination_service.dart
- Check assets/models/ directory
- Move device to detect surface

### Issue: Performance drops

**Causes**:
- High polygon count
- Too many objects placed
- Large uncompressed textures

**Solution**:
- Optimize model file size
- Limit objects per scene
- Compress textures

### Issue: Touch not responding

**Causes**:
- No object selected
- Gesture detector disabled
- Service not initialized

**Solution**:
- Tap to place/select object first
- Check ArService initialization
- Verify gesture listeners are active
