I am trying to run the SceneDepthPointCloud demo in Xcode 12.2.

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/arkit/visualizing_a_point_cloud_using_scene_depth

I set run destination to an iPad Pro 11-inch 2nd gen, but Xcode flags an "unsupported device".

What is wrong? Is it possible to run the LIDAR demo in the Xcode simulator or do I need to run on a physical device?

Yes, this sample must be run on a physical device (the project should run on any physical device, but will cause a runtime error near-immediately if that device does not have a supported LiDAR scanner). The Simulator will not support running the project as it does not have capabilities to run the necessary camera functionality nor LiDAR/depth functionality.
