Check for object tracking support

Your app can check at runtime whether a provider plug-in supports object tracking on the user's device. Use the following example code to check whether the device supports object tracking:

void Start()
{
    if (LoaderUtility
            .GetActiveLoader()?
            .GetLoadedSubsystem<XRObjectTrackingSubsystem>() != null)
    {
        // XRObjectTrackingSubsystem was loaded. Object tracking is supported.
    }
}

Note

This example code assumes that your app has already initialized XR.

By default XR initializes automatically when your app starts, but this is configurable via Project Settings > XR Plug-in Management > Initialize XR on Startup. Refer to the XR Plug-in Management End-user documentation for more detailed information about managing the XR Plug-in lifecycle.
