🌐 Concept Overview
This project is a mobile application that leverages Niantic’s Lightship ARDK to transform real-world objects and environments into interactive 3D models. By combining augmented reality (AR) with real-time spatial mapping, the app empowers users to capture, visualize, and share digital replicas of their surroundings.
🧩 Core Features
- AR-Based Scanning: Use your phone’s camera to scan objects and spaces with precision.
- Real-Time Mesh Generation: Lightship ARDK’s meshing capabilities create detailed 3D surfaces instantly.
- Object Recognition: Identify and segment scanned items for cleaner models.
- Export & Share: Save scans in standard 3D formats (GLTF, OBJ) for use in games, design, or VR.
- Interactive Visualization: View and manipulate scans in AR, scaling or rotating them in real-world context.
- Cloud Integration: Store and share scans with collaborators or communities.
🎯 Project Goals
- Provide an accessible tool for 3D content creation without specialized hardware.
- Enable creators, designers, and developers to integrate real-world assets into AR/VR experiences.
- Showcase the power of Niantic Lightship ARDK in bridging physical and digital worlds.
- Build a foundation for future AR applications like gaming, education, and digital twins.
