Scaniverse Detail Mode
We’re excited to announce that Scaniverse 1.7 with Detail Mode is available on the App Store today.
Detail Mode is a new processing mode for Scaniverse, in addition to the existing LiDAR options. It uses photogrammetry to produce high-quality scans of people, objects, and smaller scenes with lots of texture. To try it out, press the “Detail” button after completing your scan.
While Detail Mode works well for objects, the original LiDAR modes continue to be the best option for rooms, buildings, and outdoor spaces. They also work better for things that lack texture or have shiny surfaces. We’ve renamed these modes to match the use cases they solve. Area mode (formerly “Ultra”) delivers the highest LiDAR quality, while Speed mode (formerly “Standard”) produces reconstructions quickly, often finishing in a few seconds.
No matter which mode you select, all processing happens entirely on device. Your scan data is never sent to the cloud, and your models will only leave your device if you choose to share them.
We wanted to let you try out Detail Mode as soon as possible, but we still have a number of improvements in store. In future releases, Detail Mode will get faster and improve its reconstruction quality. We also plan to roll it out to all iOS devices, including those without LiDAR.
Please give Detail Mode a try and let us know what you think. Or check out more examples of Detail Mode on Sketchfab. Happy scanning!
