Hi there, i was hoping to see if any Unity AR Dev could answer a question of mine,

i would like to place the AR camera onto a character controller to simulate something like tank controls for a game. i was wondering if:

  1. it was possible to move the AR Camera out of AR Session Origin? Will there be any side-effects to doing so
  2. for clarity, is there any real reason that AR Camera should be parented by AR Session Origin? ( i understand ar session origin will also be parent of plane/pointcloud trackables)

Open for discussion as well. Thank you!

The AR Camera must be a child of the AR session origin.

The AR camera is being driven from the input of the AR device. The AR camera cannot be driven by a character controller.
