Usage

cloudSky.ar.canDoAr(
    function (canDoAr) {
        // canDoAr == true if we can do AR on this device, false otherwise.
    },
    function () {
        // Error retrieving AR capability.
        // Optional.
    }
)

showGeolocationsForSelection

cloudSky.ar.showGeolocationsForSelection(
    {
        maxDistance: 1000, // OPTIONAL, defaults to 1000
        geoLocations: [
            {
                latitude: 1.2345,
                longitude: 101.2345678,
                name: "Location name"
            },
            ...
        ]
    },
    function (location) {
        // location is a new object with the same latitude, longitude, and name
        // as the location which the user tapped on.
        // If the AR view was dismissed using the Cancel button,
        // location === undefined.
    },
    function () {
        // Error launching the AR view.
        // Optional.
    }
)

Where:

• maxDistance is the maximum distance from the device's current coordinates to a geolocation before it is no longer displayed.
• geoLocations is an array of locations to display. Any location not matching the given format will be ignored / not displayed.
