Some time ago, Google ARCore was simply an application that could be downloaded from any Android phone from the Google Play Store, something that changed recently to give way to a certification that Google itself gives to certain phones that they consider.
With this, these teams that are certified have access to augmented reality services such as applications like Google Maps in Live View mode or 3D animals from Google search.
