I used App “Niantic Wayfarer” to scan the room and get the 3D space model on my app, and I can preview the 3D scene model.
I can see two rooms, including a living room and a bedroom.
However, after I uploaded this model to the server and re-downloaded the scene model from the server, there was only one room left.
So, how can I get the whole scene model? Why can not I get a complete room model like I previewed on my phone?
Hi Xuheng,
Thank you for your message. Unfortunately, scans made with the Wayfarer app are subject to chunking if the scanning process exceeds 60 seconds. Chunking occurs when the scanned area is divided into smaller meshes instead of forming one large mesh, as previewed in the app.
The good news is that Wayfarer has been deprecated in favor of Scaniverse. Scaniverse allows you to create and export scans and Gaussian Splats directly from the app for free. I encourage you to explore our documentation article Scaniverse for Lightship for a detailed explanation on how to get started with Scaniverse for Lightship and what other features and benefits transitioning will have.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need further assistance.
Kind regards,
Maverick L.
Hi Marverick L.
I had read the documentation which you recommended. It is really awesome. Thank you so much. By the way, I want to know more about the limitations of the reconstruction area. Is there a maximal area restriction? is the VPS free to all kinds of use including commercial use? Thank you.
Hi Xuheng,
I’m glad to hear you found our documentation helpful!
Scaniverse doesn’t have a strict size limit, but larger scans may take more processing time and could lose smaller details. For accurate VPS localization, we recommend keeping scans to a maximum of 10 meters in diameter.
Lastly, VPS is currently free for commercial use for up to 50,000 monthly active users.
Kind regards,
Maverick L.
Ok, I got it. Thank you so much.
