Post Description

Built Oareo, an iPhone app for scanning rooms into 3D using LiDAR.

I made it because a lot of spatial capture tools felt too heavy or fragmented for simple room scanning on mobile. The goal here was to make the workflow straightforward: scan a space, review the capture, and export something useful.

Would love feedback on the product, the framing, and which use cases feel most interesting to you.
