Catch up on all the latest in this month's DotProduct newsletter. Read on to find out more about scanning a black car in sunlight with an iPhone Pro, new large-scale outdoor scanning on Android, our new clip explaining Dot3D loop closure, an example scan of a massive building footprint captured with just an iPhone, and an entire home interior scanned in 10 minutes flat.
Black Car in Sunlight | Dot3D for iOS LiDAR
Outdoor demo clip: Shoutout to the iPhone Pro LiDAR for its remarkable performance on a black car in bright sunlight! Sure, she’s a bit dusty…but it was also SO sunny! Well done, Dot3D. Full video is shown at constant 2.5x speed.
Large-scale Android Scanning | Now in Beta
Android sample data: We're very excited to formally welcome Android into the world of ultra-large Dot3D scanning with our latest 5.3 beta! Here’s a super large test scan from a Samsing Galaxy Tab S7 + RealSense D455 kit.
Loop Closure in Dot3D | What's that really mean?
Explainer video: So you've heard about AprilTags and loop closure in Dot3D. But for the uninitiated, what does that really mean? Take a peak at this new video clip from our team for a great quick explanation of this important feature.
How Big? | Dot3D scan of a massive school exterior

Dot3D™ Tip of the Month:
Scanning a staircase, residence, or other interior space with floors/walls you trust as flat and parallel to each other? Remember to make use of the planarity constraints feature during scanning (hold on camera button, without releasing move finger to plane button, release while pointing at a flat floor/wall).
