Research direction

No repository files, tests, or entry points are named. First clarify whether the goal is to document compatible scanning and photogrammetry workflows or to add support for an alternative; done would require a specific, agreed scope and documented recommendation.

Description

My iPhone 12 doesn't support Stray Scanner. Are there other recommended approaches for the map building step? Any existing projects people are working on that I could contribute to?

I also have Android devices

From my understanding, my options are only photogrammetry. Polycam, KIRI Engine, etc. -> COLMAP
