Is there currently a way to get the LIDAR data from iphones/ipads in a way that can be applied to software like autodesk revit, in a photogrammetry standpoint. There are multiple scanning apps on the app store that simply lack the power to utilise the data they use, however, (I think) use the LIDAR architecture. If the data was available as a separate channel, iphones could become a real alternative to 3d scanners.
Hello,
There is no api available that gives you access to the "raw" LiDAR data. The closest that you can get to the raw data is via the sceneDepth api, which provides you with a depth map that is constructed based on the LiDAR data as well as other sources of data.
That being said, I strongly encourage you to file an enhancement request using Feedback Assistant if you feel that you need something more to be able to build the app you are aiming to build.
