Hylios · Magical Space Intelligence
Scan a room with LiDAR → get a precise, shareable 3D model. ✨
Hylios turns the space around you into a parametric 3D model. Walk a room with an iPhone or iPad Pro and RoomPlan builds a measurable, exportable scan in real time — for architecture, renovation, design, engineering, or the sheer magic of capturing a place.
🚧 Revival in progress. Hylios is being modernized to SwiftUI + Swift 6, iOS 18+ with modern RoomPlan, haptics, Live Activities, an updated App Clip, and opt-in Liquid Glass on iOS 26. The full plan lives at
docs/REVIVAL-PLAN.md.
Scan → model. Full clips: scan · demo
- 🪄 LiDAR room scanning — RoomPlan constructs a parametric 3D model of your space live, with walls, doors, windows, and openings detected automatically.
- 🧊 USDZ export — export
.parametric,.mesh, or.all; share to Files, Messages, Mail, or straight into a 3D pipeline. - 🏷️ Space classification — residential / commercial / public, each with subtypes, so scans are organized by context.
- 📐 App Clip — invoke a guided scan from a link or QR code and try Hylios instantly, no install required.
- 🌸 Revival additions — haptics, an animated SwiftUI surface, Live Activities for long scans, and Liquid Glass on iOS 26.
- An iPhone Pro or iPad Pro with a LiDAR scanner (RoomPlan requires LiDAR).
- iOS 18+ after the revival (the shipping build targets iOS 16+).
- Xcode 16+ to build.
| Layer | Tech |
|---|---|
| UI | SwiftUI (revival) — previously UIKit + Storyboards |
| Language | Swift 6, strict concurrency (revival) |
| Scanning | RoomPlan (RoomCaptureView, RoomCaptureSession, CapturedRoom) |
| 3D | RealityKit / SceneKit for USDZ preview |
| Engagement | ActivityKit Live Activities · UIKit haptics |
| Delight | iOS 26 Liquid Glass (opt-in via availability) |
git clone https://github.com/Ripnrip/Hylios.git
cd Hylios
open EtherealDimension.xcodeprojPick an iPhone Pro simulator (or a real LiDAR device for a true scan) and run the
EtherealDimension scheme. RoomPlan's full capture flow needs physical LiDAR hardware;
the simulator is useful for UI work only.
See docs/REVIVAL-PLAN.md for the phased plan:
- ✅ Consolidate onto
Ripnrip/Hylios(history preserved fromnoeticactivity/Hylios) - ✅ Identity — animated banner, README, demo footage
- 🚧 Foundation — Swift 6, iOS 18, fix camera-usage string, SwiftUI app shell
- ⏳ Features — modern RoomPlan, haptics, animations, Live Activities + App Clip
- ⏳ Ship — TestFlight via the Binary Bros ASC account
- open-swiftui-animations by @amosgyamfi — curated motion patterns ported into Hylios (revival).
- Apple RoomPlan sample “Scanning the rooms of a real building” — the original scaffold for the capture flow.
- Animated banner technique inspired by browser-use/browser-harness.
