About LiDAR VR Viewer
LiDAR VR Viewer is dedicated to the visualization of point clouds and surfaces as an immersive experience through virtual reality. With a Bluetooth controller and a simple head-mounted display such as Google cardboard, it turns into a powerful tool to investigate and explore 3D data.
A scientific paper describing this app has been published in the proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Computer Graphics, Visualization, Computer Vision and Image Processing (2017)
Features :
• Developed for virtual reality head mounted displays such has Google Cardboard
• All-native rendering utilizing OpenGL ES 2.0
• Supports point cloud ASCII files
• Colors the points from elevation, intensity or RGB values
• Supports point cloud with normals, rendered as surfel (work in progress)
• Supports point clouds up to few millions points (depends on the smartphone GPU)
• Supports surface mesh Wavefront .obj files
• Control camera movement with Blue-tooth controller or touchscreen
• * New * Demo files download-able from the start screen
• * New * Button mapping of blue-tooth controller detailed in the start screen menu
• * New * Casting mode to broadcast the 3D model on TV (requires a controller)
Note :
The currently supported input ASCII files are as follows, without header (The columns must be separated by space character : " ")
• 3 columns X Y Z :
1.234 2.567 3.891
• 4 columns X Y Z intensity (float) :
1.234 2.567 3.891 0.2
• 6 columns X Y Z R G B [0-255] :
1.234 2.567 3.891 125 250 135
• 6 columns X Y Z Nx Ny Nz (coordinates + normals):
1.234 2.567 3.891 0.11 0.07 0.91

Would be nice if you could actually open a file -- pressing the Start button only open a preference page. I downloaded their sample files, but there is no Open button.

Excellent viewer, all i could wish for is a bit more performance in VR mode and maybe a controller input only option that supported turning, would be handy when casting to a TV.

Provides an excellent immersive experience for 3D point cloud viewing using Google Cardboard. Would be interesting to have spots to click using the google cardboard button similar to how the demo google cardboard videos are done in order to remove the need for a controller.

Great app, especially with Cardboard. Imagery tracks head movement smoothly. Rendering is fast. Hope to see support for my .las files collection.

One of the coolest apps. More entertaining using VR headset with Bluetooth control. Can be used by designers of all fields which gives actual 3D experience on your phone. What i saw, if added a fps mode game into it can make this app the next big thing.

It was easy to add a point cloud from aerial lidar and view it from above. Nice work. I was not able to move in the point cloud, though. Not sure why.

For mesh or point. App doesn't work on Sony z2

I have OnePlus 3T. And app is never able to render point cloud on it. All I see is blank screen.
