As for the expansion of this tech, is it more of a Hardware limitation or Software limitation

I am really enjoying this app on my Android phone and Quest 3 (besides the errors unloading issue, hehe :winking_face_with_tongue:)

But i gladly look forward to this tech expanding to be even greater some how. But for it to get there, i was wondering if current Phone tech Hardware or Software were more the limitation hurdle for this scanning tech to take its next hurdle.

Can you developers provide feedback on this?

There’s a limit to what can be processed on a modern phone (eg: i16pro, as an Android fan, it pains me to say that). Data collection works fine on current phones but to build larger maps from multiple scans, we are building a server infrastructure to build and connect scans there. No word yet on when this will be available, but it is a high priority.

There are very powerful Android devices out there as well. But droid phones do have a disadvantage of not having the lidar chip, which adds a lot of useful data.
