Update Spatial Mapping

CristianGómez

Hi everyone!

My team and I are developing a game and we need to update the Spatial Mapping. We need to scan the environment to detect floors, walls, ceilings and so on. However, the environment can change. An example that can clarify my question is as follows: we start scanning the environment for a specified time. Then, we can place objects on surfaces that have been mapped. For example, we can place a cube in a chair, but the chair can move, so the cube should drop. The Spatial Mapping should reactivate to be able to detect the objects that have changed its position. How could I do it?

Thanks a lot for your help!
Cristian.

You can leave the spatial mapper running but set the draw visual meshes to false after your initial scan. then increase the Time Between Updates field value on your spatial Mapping Observer so it happens less frequently -- or set up your own timer and turn spatial mapping on and off as you need to. You actually have an incredible amount of control over spatial mapping if you need it.
