Save Splunk AR workspace orientation with NFC tags

Use a detection image to save AR workspaces and visualizations exactly as you've placed them for every subsequent scan. Detection images provide Splunk AR a visual reference, so that you can save the orientation of your AR workspaces with NFC tags.

Get a detection image from Splunk Cloud Gateway.
