# ARSKView

A view that blends virtual 2D content from SpriteKit into the 3D space of an augmented reality experience.

## Declaration

```swift
class ARSKView
```

## Mentioned in

Providing 2D Virtual Content with SpriteKit

## Overview

Overview Use the ARSKView class to create augmented reality experiences that position 2D elements in 3D space within a device camera view of the real world. When you run the view’s provided ARSession object: The view automatically renders the live video feed from the device camera as the scene background. When you implement ARSKViewDelegate methods to associate SpriteKit content with real-world positions, the view automatically scales and rotates those SpriteKit nodes so that they appear to track the real world seen by the camera.
