I'll be honest: I didn't know that an iPhone was able to do a lidar scan. (The iPhone 12 Pro, 13 Pro, and iPad Pro can all do it.) When I found out that my phone could, I became obsessed with ...

With the help of a drone-mounted LiDAR scan, archaeologists were able to create a rough topographical map of two ...

Lidar sensors add depth scanning for better photos and AR, but in future we could see mixed-reality headsets and more. Lidar is one of the iPhone and iPad Pro's coolest tricks: Here's what else it ...

You've got a LiDAR scanner if you've got an iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max, or an iPad Pro, but Apple doesn't appear to give you any way to use it. Here's how you can, what you need, and why ...

Lidar is a well-known technology, used by everyone from ocean scientists at NOAA to self-driving car companies.Considered more accurate than radar, which uses radio waves to detect objects, Lidar ...

Lidar imagery of features discovered in the Casarabe city using lidar. Image Credits: Prümers et al. The Casarabe culture, as it has been named following its discovery, remain mostly a mystery.

In the cross section image above (Figure 1), the yellow points are from a photogrammetry dataset while the points in brown are from a LiDAR scan over the same area. As can be clearly seen, the ...

The Autonomous Vehicle revolution has driven a sensor data overload, creating barriers for practical deployment. Lean sensing needs to happen if AVs are to become a reality.

LIDAR provides a picture of the ground hidden beneath, using a sophisticated computer program that produces an image of the land stripped clean of all its trees, bushes and greenery.

And today, in combination with modern technology like LiDAR, it’s allowing researchers to craft a 3D model of the famous shipwreck to study long after the wreckage itself has deteriorated.

Archaeologists discovered a vast network of 14th-century villages in the Amazon — and they might be arranged like the cosmos. The stars held important meaning to early Native Amazonians and may ...
