After placing portals around the physical space, use the Domain Management Tool (DMT) app to record their poses within the domain.
Download the Domain Management Tool (DMT) app.
DMT allows you to give your domain spatial information, such as locations of portals and (coming soon) knowledge on navigable areas.
NOTE: The Android app has been tested on the following devices:
Google Pixel 6 Pro (Android 14)
Samsung Galaxy S23+ (Android 14)
OnePlus 9 Pro 5G (Android 13)
Sony Xperia 1 IV XQ-CT72 (Android 13)
Because the app uses the device's SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) algorithms, it is recommended to use higher end devices similar to the above running Android 13+; otherwise you may notice performance issues and the positioning of portals may be inaccurate.
Calibrate your portals into your domain using DMT.
Login to the DMT app with the same credentials you used for the Auki posemesh console.
Select the domain you just created and click “Enter domain”, then “Continue”.
Scan your first portal, which should be the one on the floor that you chose to be the entrance point with coordinates (0, 0, 0); once the first one is captured, your coordinate system has been set up.
Click “Add additional portals” and walk slowly around to scan each portal; when it has been captured it will turn green and you can move on to the next one.
After you’ve finished capturing all of the portals, click “Finish domain setup”; you should now see digital representations of all portals in their respective locations.
If you missed any, click “Add new portal”, scan one of the already captured ones to calibrate into your domain, and then continue capturing the new ones (go back to step 4).
Best practices for capturing portals in DMT
Ensure that the space is well lit and no portals are shadowed.
After capturing the origin point portal, avoid jerky movements and move slowly to the additional portals to minimize drift.
Using a gimbal helps to minimize drift as well.
Try to keep some distinct features in the frame while moving between portals to help with SLAM accuracy.
Periodically return to previously captured portals to recalibrate; this will reset any drift that has occurred.
