Abstract
Various implementations disclosed herein provide feedback to a user during object scanning based on how well sensor data of the scanned object has been captured. During object scanning a user may move an electronic device with sensors (e.g., cameras, depth sensors, etc.) around an object to capture sensor data for use in generating a final 3D model of the object. Live feedback during the scanning process is enabled by assessing how well the captured sensor data represents different portions of the object. In some implementations, a 3D model is generated, updated, and assessed based on the sensor data live during the scanning process. This live 3D model may be coarser (i.e., having fewer details) than the final 3D model.
