How to create a border for SCNNode to indicate its selection in iOS 11 ARKit-Scenekit?

问题

How to draw a border to highlight a SCNNode and indicate to user that the node is selected? In my project user can place multiple virtual objects and user can select any object anytime. Upon selection i should show the user highlighted 3D object. Is there a way to directly achieve this or draw a border over SCNNode?

You need to add a tap gesture recognizer to the sceneView.

// add a tap gesture recognizer
let tapGesture = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(handleTap(_:)))
scnView.addGestureRecognizer(tapGesture)

Then, handle the tap and highlight the node:

@objc
func handleTap(_ gestureRecognize: UIGestureRecognizer) {
    // retrieve the SCNView
    let scnView = self.view as! SCNView

    // check what nodes are tapped
    let p = gestureRecognize.location(in: scnView)
    let hitResults = scnView.hitTest(p, options: [:])
    // check that we clicked on at least one object
    if hitResults.count > 0 {
        // retrieved the first clicked object
        let result = hitResults[0]

        // get its material
        let material = result.node.geometry!.firstMaterial!

        // highlight it
        SCNTransaction.begin()
        SCNTransaction.animationDuration = 0.5

        // on completion - unhighlight
        SCNTransaction.completionBlock = {
            SCNTransaction.begin()
            SCNTransaction.animationDuration = 0.5

            material.emission.contents = UIColor.black

            SCNTransaction.commit()
        }

        material.emission.contents = UIColor.red

        SCNTransaction.commit()
    }
}

The snippet above highlights the whole node. You'd have to adjust it to highlight the borders only, if that's what you're looking for.
