Running Augmented reality apps on Linux using emulator

In continuation with this question. I am asking this question.

I installed Android Studio. I installed Unity 3D. I followed tutorials of Java-Android Studio and Unity. Nothing worked well because of the reason that they need the latest version of ARCore and neither my mobile nor emulator is compatible with it. I am exhausted searching for alternatives.

I didn't find any tutorial or guidance related to developing Augmented Reality Android apps. Please suggest me a reference that works on Ubuntu system without the need of the physical mobile, but with an emulator, if possible.

Note: Please provide a reference that is relatively easy to test small app initially so that I can proceed forward. I am saying this because of the reason that I am working from almost 3 months but didn't run a small AR app either in the emulator or in my mobile (Redmi Note - 4).

You should check 8thWall. It runs on almost all phones and it has SLAM as well. You can not use it with emulator but it has an application called XR Remote in which you can test your code without building for Android or iOS. Minimum requirement for Android is Android Kitkat (4.4) or higher and for iOS Minimum iOS 7.0 or later is required.

enter image description here

As the owner of the question stated 8thWall can not be used with Linux. As an alternative [ARToolKit] can be used. It is an open source AR framework. For more details you can refer here and here
