Have you ever thought that what will you do if your new sofa is bigger than the older one? Sometimes even 5cm is also enough to get driving you crazy. Good news, Apple lidar sensor has a quick solution for you. The “RoomPlan” is just one of them. You can easily create 3d models of your home in minutes.
Use RoomPlan to create a 3D model of an interior room. The framework uses a device’s sensors, trained ML models, and RealityKit’s rendering capabilities to capture the physical surroundings of an interior room.
For example, the framework inspects a device’s camera feed and LiDAR readings to identify walls, windows, openings, and doors. RoomPlan also recognizes room features, furniture, and appliances, such as a fireplace, bed, or refrigerator, and provides that information to the app.

To begin a capture, the app presents a view (Room
) that the user looks through to see their room in AR. The view displays virtual cues as they move around the room:
When the app determines that the current scan is complete, the view displays a small-scale version of the scanned room for the user to approve.
The framework outputs a scan as parametric data, which makes it easy for your app to modify the scanned room’s individual components. RoomPlan also provides the results in various Universal Scene Description (USD) formats. With these assets, your app can implement custom features, such as the following:
