iOS11 ARKit: Can ARKit also capture the Texture of the user's face?

Question

I read the whole documentation on all ARKit classes up and down. I don\'t see any place that describes ability to actually get the user face\'s Texture.

ARFaceAn

Answer 1

No. That information is not currently available in ARKit.

To detect other facial features, you'll need to run your own custom computer vision code. You can capture images from the front-facing camera using AVFoundation.
