Im working on Apple RoomPlanAPI MergescansFeature which is an update of ios17. In this it is said mergescans can be done in 2 ways
- continuous ARsession
- ARRelocalization
I've worked on ARRelocalization . I take a first scan and then come nextday and want to take another scan . can we start the scan anywhere in that particular house. and can merge them. Because currently what I was doing was I take a scan and when i stop the scan ..then save the world map like the snapshot/anchors of that point where I've stopped the scan and again come nextday and start a scan then load the saved map... it says we should go where we've stopped the last scan then only it will sense the environment and it relocalizes with the previous scan coordinatesystem. now we can take a scan and these 2 can be merged.
but now what i want was i will take a scan and due to some reasons i didn't take the bedroom of the house now I'll come next day and want to take only the bedroom scan can i start it from the bedroom scan directly without going to the last point where we stopped the scan and merge these two scans? is it even possible?
ARWorldMap can store features from the entire run of the ARSession that captured it. If you traverse an entire home except for one room, the last room that you happened to traverse isn't relevant. When you attempt to relocalize with that ARWorldMap later, it needs to see features from something that it saw when it was captured, which could be any room except for the one room that you never visited before.
