LiDAR 3D Scanner for iOS (SwiftUI + ARKit)

A SwiftUI-based iOS app that leverages Apple's LiDAR sensors and ARKit to scan real-world environments, generate a detailed 3D mesh, and export it as a .OBJ file for 3D preview, analysis, or further processing.

✨ Features

• Real-time environment scanning using LiDAR sensors (iPhone / iPad Pro).

• Mesh generation with detailed depth mapping and surface reconstruction.

• Export 3D mesh as a standard .OBJ file.

• Preview scanned models with pan, zoom, and rotate controls in an ARKit scene.

• Smooth SwiftUI interface integrated with ARKit rendering.

📱 Requirements

• iOS 16.0+

• Xcode 15+

• Device with LiDAR sensor (e.g., iPhone 12 Pro, 13 Pro, 14 Pro, or iPad Pro).

🚀 Getting Started

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/cedanmisquith/SwiftLiDAR

2. Open the project in Xcode.

3. Build and run on a physical device with a LiDAR sensor (simulator not supported).
