Acer Immersive Mixed Reality - Environmental Scan (Spatial Mapping)
Hello,
I am using the Acer Immersive Mixed Reality Headset for a while now and I recognised something disturbing with the scanning of the suroundings.
Everytime when I start the headset at a new area and for some reason the area is not scanned correctly, it stays in that "wrong" scanned mode.
For example, in some situations my body height is too low and I am just 1m tall. This is not reversible, except restarting the Software. And even then it happens again and again.
So my question now is: How can I trigger the headset to scan the area again. Perhaps something like in the HoloLens Shell when you Finger-Tap the environment and the HoloLens is doing some scans.
I hope it is understandable what I need.
Thanks in advance!

Hi OptiLenso,
Spatial mapping is not supported on Immersive headsets.
For your problem, if the floor of your Windows Mixed Reality Home doesn't feel like it's at the right height, open the Room Adjustment app from the start menu. This app will be launched once you place the app in the world. In this app, you will be directed to use the touch pad (motion controller) or direction pad (gamepad) to adjust the floor height.
Besides, you can reset your boundary by launching the Mixed Reality Portal, click the Boundary button and then click Run setup.
If all of above can't work, you can then try to clear all environment data to remove all bounds from the device. To remove this data, open Settings, and navigate to Mixed Reality. From here, select the Environment section of the left hand side menu. Click the Clear Environment Data. If you wish to use safety bounds after clearing the environment data, you can set it up again.

All right. Thanks @JayZuo for the answer.
I hope that there will be a more practicable procedure in the future.

Is it possible to call the function Clear Environment Data within the unity application (from code)?
