What is XYN Spatial Scan?

XYN Spatial Scan is a cloud application that transforms multiple photographs into high-quality 3DCG assets of real-world spaces. Using Sony's proprietary algorithms, it precisely estimates the shape and texture of subjects, reproducing them as production-quality 3DCG assets. No complex setup is required; generation is possible with just a few clicks.
