‘The 2018 Source Code’: Monotype Gets Real About AR/VR

a new year always seems to bring new opportunities for talented developers. to help our dev community hit the ground running in 2018, we’ve mined insights from some of the industry’s brightest minds for the 2018 source code: a dev’s guide. in this first q&a, vivek vadakkuppattu, product management director at monotype, creator of the popular app flipfont, discusses trends he’s seeing in the world of ar/vr development while sharing his predictions for the upcoming year.with all types of ar/vr devices on the market, what’s the common thread to maintain smooth performance while making efficient use of computing resources? when looking at computing resources, runtime performance has a major impact on streaming and webvr. with this in mind, there are two approaches to building and rendering ar/vr content that will ensure smooth performance, not just across the plethora of devices, but also across use cases and environments. there is currently work happening on both these fronts. first is compression of assets – for example, fonts – so that the size of the app is reduced. the second is rendering optimization to lower resolution in sections of the experience that users don’t focus on. what are your tips for ar/vr developers on app scalability? developers will see the most value by focusing on creating ar/vr apps the “right” way. for example, when implementing text in ar/vr experiences, one common approach is to use bitmaps for text, instead of actual vectors, as a quick, simple way to get a ui up and running. consequently, the text is often of poor quality or requires a lot of manual manipulation, is difficult to localize, or isn’t optimized for the device at hand, thereby limiting scalability. today, however, there are new technologies that enable rendering for high-quality text that can be localized for the user and customized for the device’s screen resolution at hand – all done more efficiently from a resource standpoint. using this technology – and text as vectors – apps can be scaled across devices and geographies more easily than traditional, manual means. fonts that work nicely for websites or print don’t always perform as well in the world of ar/vr. why? ar and vr are immersive, stereoscopic environments where depth plays a major role. therefore, fonts must be chosen carefully to match the tone and genre of the content to enhance the experience without distracting the user. legibility is arguably more important for ar/vr than other mediums. while the aesthetics of fonts are important, choosing highly legible fonts can help mitigate nausea by fostering a more pleasant, comfortable user experience, and enhance readability by letting the user process the text with minimal effort, time or strain. how does monotype’s ar/vr beta solution help with the testing process for font implementation? the monotype ar/vr beta solution makes it easier for developers to create ar/vr experiences with text that is highly legible, localized, customizable (in terms of appearance) and resource optimized. the native support for localization assists with scaling across geographies, and the dynamic customization and resource optimization helps create experiences that scale across devices and platforms. from a font standpoint, we have also identified fonts that offer high legibility, providing developers a resource to find fonts that perform especially well in ar/vr environments. what’s the one big trend that (ar/vr) developers should keep their eyes on in 2018? webvr is a big trend that developers should follow. a major challenge to developing for vr has been the limited footprint of devices in addition to fragmentation of devices and platforms. webvr will democratize vr by making it easier to build scalable content that’s accessible to a wider audience. other trends we’re keeping tabs on are foveated rendering, additional sensory information like smell and touch, and a consolidation of development platforms. thank you to vivek for sharing his thoughts. in the coming weeks, we’ll be talking to more industry experts on what developers need to know moving into 2018, so be sure to like us on facebook and follow us on twitter so you don’t miss an installment of the 2018 source code: a dev’s guide. join the samsung developer program today

Test Guide

test guide 1 overview samsung in-app purchase iap supports your app iap-integration and in-app product development testing of in-app product offering, purchase, and payment functionality before you submit your apps and in-app products consumable and non-consumable items and subscriptions to validation testing and normal publication in galaxy store iap testing of in-app product offerings when your app gets and presents current product prices and details to app users is the same as for normal publication iap testing of in-app product purchase and payment is the same as for normal publication except for subscription testing changes, and some testers get products for free 2 iap test environment determine the iap tests and type of purchase and payment transactions to test products with in your app code, set the iap operating mode indicated below in the seller portal register your app and in-app products, set up closed beta testing if used , and set the app status indicated below iap test transactions iap operating mode app status always successful side load no charge operation_mode_test registering always fail side load no charge operation_mode_test_failure registering production closed beta no charge or charge depends on type of tester operation_mode_production beta deployed cautiondo not test when the iap operating mode is operation_mode_production and the app status is registering iap functionality is not supported under these conditions 2 1 iap test transaction types iap testing supports no charge and charge transactions for product purchases 1 no charge transactions product payments are not reported to the payment gateway pg card company or payment agency for successful transactions, purchase emails, with amounts, are sent to testers in the product purchase ui popup, the sandbox icon is displayed details depend on the iap test environment and type of tester iap operating mode tester type details operation_mode_test license tester testers always get purchased products - iap always reports successful purchases for non-consumable items, the purchase record is initialized every 10 minutes to allow repurchase for subscriptions, the subscription cycle is automatically renewed every 10 minutes and the subscription is automatically canceled after 12 renewals operation_mode_test_failure all types testers never get purchased products - iap always reports failed purchases operation_mode_production all types for successful purchases, testers get products - iap reports success 2 charge transactions for successful transactions, product payments are reported to and authorized by the payment gateway pg card company or payment agency , and iap reports purchase amounts only occurs for beta test with operation_mode_production and non-license tester for successful purchases, testers get products and are charged, and iap reports successful purchases 2 2 license tester a license tester can purchase in-app products without charge in operation_mode_test mode or closed beta test to be a license tester, testers must be registered as a license tester in the seller's seller portal profile for a closed beta test, license tester can also be added from the binary tab 3 iap testing when creating tests of your app, in-app products, and samsung iap, the iap tests are guidelines for test setup and initiating and verifying iap functionality you can test your app and in-app products with one or more iap tests 3 1 preparation for all iap tests, prepare your testers, app, and in-app products ensure each tester has a valid credit card for payment side load tester and license tester credit cards are not billed for any product purchases non-license tester credit cards are billed for all product purchases in your app code set the iap operating mode for the selected iap test iaphelper setoperationmode helperdefine operationmode [iap operating mode for the selected test] build the app apk for details, see the programmingguide in the samsung galaxy store seller portal register the app and in-app products set the app status for the selected iap test 3 2 test type 1 always successful side load test purpose and use test offerings, purchases, and payments of all products test subscriptions at iap test periods commonly used during app, in-app product, and iap integration development prepare the app and in-app products for testing iap operating mode is set to operation_mode_test install the app on a test device by an independent method such as side loading test product offering and purchase a testers always get purchased products and are not charged b iap reports all purchases as successful and the purchase amounts test subscriptions 2 always fail side load test purpose and use test offerings and failed purchases and payments of all products commonly used during app, in-app product, and iap integration development prepare the app and in-app products for testing iap operating mode is set to operation_mode_test_failure install the app on a test device by an independent method such as side loading test product offering and purchase a testers always do not get products and are not charged b iap reports all product purchases and payments as failed 3 closed beta test caution apps deployed for beta testing must only be installed using the beta testing url if sideloaded, product information is not accessible if the beta test app is updated and a newer version is deployed, testers must delete the earlier beta test app from their device and re-install the app purpose and use all beta testers can test offerings, and successful and failed purchases and payments of all products consumable items, nonconsumable items, and subscriptions non-license testers test subscriptions at registered subscription periods license testers test subscriptions at iap test periods commonly used to test initial versions and update versions of apps and their products as a last development phase before normal publication notethe following steps are used for beta test setup and testing to be performed by the same person typically, a beta test conductor sets up a beta test to be run by many beta testers if the app was previously side loaded onto the test device, uninstall the app prepare the app and in-app products for testing iap operating mode is set to operation_mode_production in seller portal a register the app and its products for details, see the app registration guide and in-app purchase guide b set up the closed beta test in the binary tab of the seller portal app registration, register all testers license and non-license and the feedback channel for the closed beta test c submit the app and its products for beta release by clicking submit beta test for more details, see the app registration guide on each beta tester’s device, download the beta app from a beta test url test product offering and purchase non-license testers can get purchased products and are charged registered subscription periods apply to subscriptions license testers can get purchased products and are not charged iap test periods apply to subscriptions iap reports successful and failed transactions, and actual product purchase amounts for successful transactions 6 test purchased subscriptions 3 3 testing product offering and purchase the following steps can be run for each

Registering Applications

registering applications this guide explains how to register and update a tv application creating new application to register a new application, click the "create app" button in the "applications" list on the application creation page, enter the application name, application type, and default language to create a new application id at this time, the entered application name and generated application id are used as application identifiers, so they cannot be duplicated and cannot be changed after creation the application name you enter when creating an application is the name used for application management within the tv seller office system, regardless of the application title displayed on tv also, the application id generated by the tv seller office is independent of the tizen id of the application package input field description mandatory updatable application name enter the application name to be used for management purposes within this system yes no app type choose between a tizen web application or a net application yes no default language choose the default language for the application yes yes notesamsung has supported the release of tizen net applications starting from february 28, 2018 tv model groups after 2018 can run tizen net applications enter all the information and click the "done" button to create the application immediately after creating the application, you can enter the necessary information for the application service and upload the application package uploading application package when registering the first version of an application that has been developed, or when registering an upgraded version with features added or defects resolved, you must first upload the application package file to distribute the application if you click the "upload" button in the "applications > app package" list, the application upload page is displayed when the 'upload package' page is provided, select the package file you want to upload first only packaged files are allowed through tizen studio the tizen web application is a file with the wgt extension, and the tizen dotnet application is a file with the tpk extension for multi-architecture packages, it has a zip extension all extensions must be lowercase when the upload is complete, the pre-test will automatically run and the result will be either pass or fail only packages passed in the pre-test can be registered for multi-architecture packages, all package files within the zip file are examined separately, so each package file may have different results pretesting examines the application package to ensure that all the information needed is available, and checks for common security issues and defects information detected during this process is stored as information about the version at the time of registration completion if it fails, it will be accompanied by a guide to where and what is wrong please review and fix all issues and try to upload again the items that the
