LiDAR to 3D web scenes

Build a tool that converts iPhone LiDAR scans into editable Three.js scenes viewable in browsers. Target architects, real estate agents, and interior designers who need quick 3D models.

Why now

With ARKit and LiDAR now common in iPhones, capturing real-world spaces for web viewing is more accessible than ever.

Who for
Architects, real estate pros
Business model
SaaS subscriptions
Effort
A few months

Professionals need to quickly create and share 3D models of physical spaces, but current solutions are either too complex or lack web compatibility.

Create a web app that processes iPhone LiDAR scans and photos into Three.js scenes, allowing easy editing and sharing via URL.

Architecture firms and real estate agencies would pay for monthly subscriptions to streamline client presentations and remote collaboration.

Start with a basic scan-to-model converter, then add editing tools and sharing features.

Biggest risk is Apple changing LiDAR APIs or competitors bundling similar features into existing tools.
