Could you build this?

No A white-label real-time AR game engine tracking full-body motion on iOS requires high-performance native engineering, low-latency computer vision/pose estimation, and complex game-engine physics.

What it would actually take: This requires a native iOS stack using ARKit, Vision, and Metal/SceneKit or a custom Unity/Unreal plugin. It demands expertise in low-latency spatial tracking, skeletal kinematic solvers, predictive hitboxes for combat, and thermal/battery optimization under heavy compute loads. Building a reusable commercial engine requires senior graphics and computer vision engineers rather than conversational prompting.
