Using an iPhone 12's Lidar Scanner to Create Realistic Pre-Viz Camera & Lighting in Blender

In this epsiode, Zack does a deep dive on creating a 3D virtual location from a lidar scanned 3D object using an iphone 12. He animates camera movement, and creates INCREDIBLY realistic lighting all in the FREE program blender!

Modeling over LiDAR scan is also quite fun for interior design - too bad that the LiDAR Scanner has a distance limitation and suffers from deformations / drifting

Nice video! Love the specific coverage for using the scans for pre-viz! I'd also give the Polycam app a try -- it should do a better job getting a cleaner reconstruction with fewer holes :)

Great video

[@goddyab]

Nice!!!

[@MsAqaqSwsw]

awesome

Hi, is there a tutorial for the flashlight light that you use in the beginning of the video? Im very new to Blender and I want to make a project with the lidar scanner!
O and thanks for the tutorial!!

[@Instant_Nerf]

How do we improve the textures? It’s the only down fall. Would it be possible to manually make the textures from the images?

Everything I take ends up looking curved and melted all over. I can’t get an exact replica of any object. I’ve tried sweeping with the phone slowly and steady and all that but it’s always the same result. Why?

[@sayonaradesu1087]

hello, how much memory does the scan occupy on the iphone? I want to know if 128 gb memory will do.

[@filiptrubac1759]

it will

[@marcfree2855]

Its very difficult

[@cekuhnen]

Too bad that the LiDAR Scanner has shifting and distance Limitations
Last car garage space I scanned resulted into terrible distortions

[@testowykana1763]

Wow. Just add some fake lens blur and you could even record actors/dialogs this way.

[@jay4kk]

awesome
