How Accurate Are Polycam Captures?

Polycam’s scanning technology can achieve an accuracy of up to 98% under optimal conditions. This means that if the scan is conducted in good conditions, you can rely on Polycam to provide measurements with a high level of precision.

The comparison displays Polycam's room scanning app, which has the capability to automatically generate a floor plan in .dxf format. It is being contrasted with a low-density 3D laser scan carried out by @FARO_TechInc and subsequently converted to .rcp format.

Good Conditions for LiDAR and Room Scans

  • Stable Lighting: Ensure the area being scanned has consistent and even lighting. Avoid direct sunlight or extreme shadows that can affect the accuracy of the scan.

  • Clear Line of Sight: The LiDAR sensor requires a clear line of sight to capture accurate depth information. Remove any obstructions or clutter that might interfere with the scan.

  • Minimal Movement: Avoid rapid movements or changes in perspective during the scan to maintain accuracy.
