I am new for Metal and ARkit. I started learning about Lidar and scene’s depth data to visualize the shape. Below is the link for the point cloud sample code provided by Apple Developers.
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/arkit/visualizing_a_point_cloud_using_scene_depth
Can someone please help me how to export the 3D file for the point cloud or some guidance that how to achieve Or is there any way to convert the point cloud data to MDLMesh so that i can export file from it.
LiDAR and point cloudsWhile LiDAR is a technology for making point clouds, not all point clouds are created using LiDAR. For example, point clouds can be made from images obtained from digital cameras, a technique known as photogrammetry.
LiDAR Terminology Point Cloud: commonly the product of a LiDAR system, it is a collection of points useful for storing large amounts of data. Each point in the point cloud can hold information, called components, which contains a value that describes the point.
Learn LiDAR Point Cloud Data, its applications and Sources. LiDAR Point Cloud data is widely used in Geospatial and Earth observation applications. This blog post will look into what Lidar data is, where and how to access it freely, and the open-source tools you can use to work with point cloud data.
Use the LiDAR Point Cloud plugin to import, visualize, and edit point clouds in Unreal Engine. With the LiDAR Point Cloud plugin, you can import, visualize, and edit point clouds in Unreal Engine. The plugin also supports a variety of coloration and shading techniques.
You would need to store the following information: There is no api that will give you access to "raw" LiDAR data.
L ight Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) is a remote sensing technique that light from a laser to measure out the Elevation like buildings, ground and forest. LiDAR uses ultraviolet, visible or near-infrared sources to sense objects.
yes there is, see this project here: https://github.com/zeitraumdev/iPadLIDARScanExport which saves a snapshot as obj file. More detailed information are here:
