As there is no autofocus in ARKit, I wanted to load ARKit in a view that is half the screen and second half will have AVFoundation -> AVCamera. Is it possible to load AVCamera and ARKit simultaneously in same app? Thanks.

Regarding the front-facing camera: in short, no. ARKit offers two basic kinds of AR experience: World Tracking ( ARWorldTrackingConfiguration ), using the back-facing camera, where a user looks "through" the device at an augmented view of the world around them.
Overview. On a fourth-generation iPad Pro running iPad OS 13.4 or later, ARKit uses the LiDAR Scanner to create a polygonal model of the physical environment.
So ultimately the reason ARKit is better is because Apple could afford to do the work to tightly couple the VIO algorithms to the sensors and spend *a lot* of time calibrating them to eliminate errors / uncertainty in the pose calculations.
Before we dive into Unity… Step 1: If you don't already have one, you'll need to create an Apple ID. You can do that here. Step 2: Now you'll need to get Apple's developer tool Xcode, which enables ARKit to do its job. You need version 9 or higher.
ARKit 6 introduces the option to capture a 4K video feed using the back camera during an ARKit session. 4K video is perfect for apps that integrate virtual and real-world content together for video creation, such as social media, professional video editing, and film production apps. Requires iPhone 11 or later or iPad Pro (5th generation).
To use ARKit 3.0 Features you need to upgrade to ARFoundation 2.2 and upgrade your ARKit packages as well. Keep in mind that since your post XCode and iOS have since had beta updates to beta 5. Also I was incorrect when I stated the latest update to iOS is beta 5 because it's beta 6 now. XCode has remained the same however.
AR content realistically passes behind and in front of people in the real world, making AR experiences more immersive while also enabling green-screen-style effects in almost any environment. Depth estimation improves on iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPad Pro in all apps built with ARKit, without any code changes.
ARKit makes the decision of what form of light estimation to use based on the current ARConfiguration in use. If you use an ARWorldTrackingConfiguration then you will get the standard light estimation values. See ARLightEstimation in the ARKit Docs.
ARKit uses AVCapture internally (as explained in the WWDC talk introducing ARKit). Only one AVCaptureSession can be running at a time, so if you run your own capture session it’ll suspend ARKit’s session (and break tracking).
Update: However, in iOS 11.3 (aka "ARKit 1.5"), ARKit enables autofocus by default, and you can choose to disable it with the isAutoFocusEnabled option.
