Scan a real room into an editable interactive 3D scene

Wes Bos captures room measurements, photos and depth, then builds an editable Three.js office recreation with physics and browser exploration.

What the hardware does

LiDAR captures real room dimensions and depth for an editable 3D scene.

How the agent helped

Creator explicitly says he used Codex to rebuild his scanned office in Three.js and details the agent's build/screenshot/compare/iterate loop.

Before you build

Needs a LiDAR-equipped Pro device and iOS/iPadOS 17+. Codex attribution applies to the scene reconstruction, not necessarily the capture app. Check measurements.

Parts for one build. Reuse equipment you already own. Quantities are planning quantities unless the creator explicitly specifies a count; kit contents are not additional purchases.

Confirm before buying

  • An exact tested Apple device SKU is not disclosed. Verify LiDAR hardware and capture-app compatibility before buying; do not buy an external LiDAR module.

Quantities are for one build. Unless marked source-specified, they are planning quantities; confirm kit contents and the chosen configuration before ordering.

  1. Qty. 1Plan / confirm
    Required

    LiDAR-equipped iPhone Pro or iPad Pro

    Capture room geometry.

    iOS/iPadOS 17 or later; model family alone is insufficient because non-LiDAR devices do not qualify.

    Sources & quantity basis

    Creator source. Planning quantity for one build; check the selected configuration.

    No exact purchase link verified; confirm the model and requirements above before ordering.

  2. Qty. 1Plan / confirm
    Required

    Computer for scene reconstruction

    Build, configure or flash the software.

    Run the Codex-assisted reconstruction workflow.

    Sources & quantity basis

    Setup requirement — check against your configuration. Planning quantity for one build; check the selected configuration.

    Use existing equipment or match the specification above. No exact purchase link verified.

Source reviewed, not assembled or hands-on tested. A working product page does not confirm stock, firmware compatibility or a complete build.
