So I assume that you're using a WebCamTexture in an empty plane to render the camera feed in AR mode (correct me if I'm wrong).

At the frame you want to snap the image (for eg, when the user presses the capture button), convert the WebCamTexture into a byte array.

Then you can store the byte array into playerprefs or static variable of a class which is not destroyed while the scene is changed.

And in the next scene, you can convert the byte array back to a Texture2D and display it wherever you want.
