The LUME PAD is a powerful platform for creating the next generation of visual content. This
section will take you through some of the basics of how you can make something magical
for LUME PAD and become a #Lumenary.
There are broadly four classes of Lightfield content you can make and experience on LUME
PAD: Realtime, CG, Photos, and Videos.
Realtime
When you write interactive software designed to run at 30 or 60 frames per second on the
LUME PAD, it’s considered real time content. We provide tools and support to help you
create real-time content on the LUME PAD, including:
Android SDK
: Our powerful Android Native SDK allows you to write Lightfield applications
of any kind using our simple C API. We provide code samples and documentation allowing
you to take any pre-existing Android app and add a whole new dimension to it.
Google ARCore
: LUME PAD is ARCore-certified. Download any ARCore app from the Google
Play Store and ARCore services will automatically install on your LUME PAD. ARCore —
Google’s AR developer platform — provides simple yet powerful tools to developers for
creating Augmented Reality experiences.

Android Developers can create apps for LUME PAD that use ARCore. Google ARCore
certification enables users to download 100+ ARCore apps from Google Play.
Unity SDK
: Leia’s powerful Unity SDK offers a variety of features that makes your Unity
games and apps jump off the screen. Importing the Leia SDK and dropping in the LeiaCam
rig can get a game ready for the LUME PAD in less than an hour. We also have advanced
features including Depth of Field settings and Autofocus. Using Leia Remote, you can even
achieve zero iteration by immediately previewing your creations on the LUME PAD’s
Lightfield display without compiling a build.
Unreal SDK
: Our Unreal SDK is coming soon, so stay tuned!
