Pretty much the only point cloud viewer for Android that I could find so far. Only tried in non-vr mode. Without VR at least the user interface is less than intuitive. It is kind of difficult to scale and rotate the view properly using the touch screen.

Great stuff. I do have 8Gb of ram on my phobe and wished I could load my full 2Gb point cloud. What are the compatible Bluetooth VR controllers we can get to best navigate the screen? No way of doing it right now when in VR mode

Was able to load an obj file easily, and a point cloud with some effort. Developer support has been phenomenal, responding within 24 hours of posting a question.

I cannot navigate (pan, zoom, rotate, etc). Only look around from the default viewing location where I spawned.

About this app

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

New features

Previous version:
- Bug fix: openGL depth got buggy in the last version
- Experimental feature: cel shading to enhance the point clouds visualization
- Screen touch control now available again
- Added one extra demo dataset: 4 millions points forest LiDAR scan
