Known Bugs
The AR-View is only working reliably if you open Google Maps and check your location there beforehand. Otherwise, the Location received by the FusedLocationAdapter might get old, inaccurate location data. To prevent this, open Google Maps, press the locate button on the bottom right, then exit Maps and open FoodFindAR. This has to be replicated every time, you want to get the accurate AR position.
