Continuous Spatial Mapping Updates

I am trying to keep updating the spatial mapping mesh as a user walk around. I am using the SpatialMappingManager/Observer from the toolkit. I don't want to be bound by the following property

[Tooltip("The extents of the observation volume.")]
public Vector3 Extents = Vector3.one * 10.0f;

I don't need to maintain all of the data as the user walks around, I just want to allow them to change locations and continue to use the mesh.

I suppose I could keep adding, or possibly re-instantiate, but it seems like there should be an easier solution.

  • To say this differently, the docs state I just need to recall the setVolume method. What is the most reliable way to determine when to recall the setVolume?

    Specify the region of space that each SurfaceObserver object will provide data for by calling either SetVolumeAsSphere, SetVolumeAsAxisAlignedBox, SetVolumeAsOrientedBox, or SetVolumeAsFrustum. You can redefine the region of space in the future by simply calling one of these methods again.

  • Hello RobAllen,

    I am trying to do exactly the same. Did you find the solution for your problem?

    Best,
