Mobile Photogrammetry Hardware Test

I've been testing the Sony Xperia XZ Premium' 3D Capture application as a mobile photogrammetry solution.
As a 1st gen application, it creates reality captures in just a few minutes, It has presets for faces, heads, food and the free form capture mode which I tested while in Auckland NZ. The results are extremely fast and intuitive, and with options to share directly to Sketchfab or email (.obj with 2K texture), it is a convenient and free method of capturing 3D models on the go. The quality is currently about 50% of that of a paid solution, but this is a massive step in the right direction and I foresee mobile solutions available for all major phones as well as a dedicated mobile capture device in the not too distant future. Amazing times are ahead.
