Export space mesh scanned on quest 3?
Hey, To cut to the chase, I want to scan my entire house, then export the space so I can load it into a 3D model. This is so I can take that low poly version of my house interior, and make my own 3...
This type of thing is called "photogrammetry" or "structure from motion". Since Meta will not allow access to their spatial data or cameras it is not possible to do such a thing with their headsets. You can use a regular camera and a 3rd party computer program to generate the 3d model which can be imported into a VR game. Reality Capture is a popular photogrammetry program and Meshroom is the leading open-source alternative.
This is not photogrammetry. The quest 3 uses lidar sensors and takes point cloud data to create a 3D visualization of a space. Photogrammetry is a series of photographs and then overlaid on each other and meshed to provide a 3D image.
