Occipital, a startup best known for a 3D camera accessory for the iPhone, is going to start selling a handheld sensor that uses lidar, the same technology that self-driving cars use. While 3D cameras ...

You've got a LiDAR scanner if you've got an iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max, or an iPad Pro, but Apple doesn't appear to give you any way to use it. Here's how you can, what you need, and why LiDAR ...

Flying drones for reality capture in constrained spaces is challenging, but a new firmware update from Leica Geosystems, part of Hexagon, for its Leica BLK2FLY delivers powerful indoor scanning ...

The DIY PiLiDAR scanner project uses a Raspberry Pi for LiDAR mapping. LiDAR scans the surroundings by firing lasers to create a 3D model. Raspberry Pi 4, camera, motors, and LiDAR kit are needed for ...

Lidar sensors add depth scanning for better photos and AR, but in future we could see mixed-reality headsets and more. I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech, VR/AR ...

Living in a suburban area means it’s easy to forget what darkness really is. The streets are always illuminated, large shopping centers leave a ghoulish glow in the distance, and sporting stadiums ...

Lidar technology is the remote sensing tech that allows self-driving cars to perceive their surroundings. Working in a similar way to radar and sonar, but using light waves rather than radio or sound, ...

LIDAR is a very exciting technology that is only just now starting to become accessible to the DIY market. Think radar, but with lasers. There’s a few different modules starting to pop up for just a ...

House-scanning app Canvas works with lidar on the iPhone 12 Pro, but also scans without it. The difference is accuracy. I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech, ...
