Compare the Top Point Cloud Processing Apps for Android as of April 2025

What are Point Cloud Processing Apps for Android?

Point cloud processing software is designed to manipulate, analyze, and visualize 3D data captured by various scanning technologies such as LiDAR or photogrammetry. It enables users to process large sets of spatial data points into accurate 3D models, which can be used in fields like architecture, engineering, construction, and environmental monitoring. Key features often include noise reduction, data segmentation, feature extraction, and mesh generation to create usable surfaces from raw point clouds. The software may also provide tools for registering multiple point clouds together into a unified coordinate system or for aligning them with existing CAD models. Ultimately, point cloud processing software helps convert raw spatial data into actionable insights, aiding in design, planning, and decision-making processes.

    FARO Sphere XG

    FARO Sphere XG

    FARO Technologies, Inc.

    FARO Sphere XG is a cloud-based digital reality platform that provides its users a centralized, collaborative experience across the company’s reality capture and 3D modeling applications. When paired with the Stream mobile app, Sphere XG enables faster 3D data capture, processing and project management from anywhere in the world. Sphere XG systematizes every activity while remaining intuitive to navigate, allowing users the ability to better organize their 3D scans and 360° photos alongside 3D models and manage that data across diverse teams around the world. With Sphere XG, 3D point clouds and 360° photo documentation can be viewed and shared all in one place, aligned to a floorplan and viewable over time. Ideal for 4D construction progress management where the ability to compare elements over time is critical, project managers and VDC managers can better democratize data and eliminate the need to use two platforms for their reality capture needs.

    Sony 3D Creator
    The 3D Creator is an app that allows you to scan objects in 3D. The latest version offers five different scan modes, selfie scan, face scan, head scan, food scan and freeform scan. The 3D Creator is preinstalled in the Xperia 1, Xperia XZ1, Xperia XZ1 Compact, Xperia XZ2, Xperia XZ2 Compact, Xperia XZ2 Premium, and Xperia XZ3. The Xperia XZ Premium receives the 3D Creator as part of the Android 8.0 (Oreo) update. The first part of the scanning process is the calibration. The camera takes images as you circulate slowly around the object and an algorithm looks for characteristics that stand out in the images. Based on the camera orientation and captured images a point cloud is created. The point cloud is quite rough and has no color. Based on the point cloud information a mesh is created. The mesh is, simply put, a group of 3D points called vertices. Using the points from the point cloud the algorithm sculpts the mesh allowing it to shape itself after the scanned object.
