Good job to your coworkers with Mementify! There is a number of apps nowadays which work in a similar way (user takes pictures which are then uploaded and processed in the cloud). Our aim is to provide a live-feedback while scanning which is possible only with on-device processing. Without it one simply never knows whether all parts of the model are captured while taking the photos. Moreover, the processing in the cloud usually takes several hours and therefore if the results are not satisfying it might be even impossible to re-take the pictures again.<p>The advantage of offline methods is though somewhat higher quality. We can add cloud post-processing later to refine final models - especially for the purposes of 3D printing.
