LiDAR is a premium accelerator. The baseline workflow must still work on ordinary phone cameras using guided capture and calibration targets.

Three-tier Handi-Ramp remote survey capture diagram Basic camera, AR-capable, and LiDAR devices feed into a shared measurement and ramp layout workflow. Customer Device Capability Shared Measurement Pipeline Handi-Ramp Output Tier 1: Basic Camera Any modern iPhone or Android Guided photos + video Calibration markers required Default path for scale Tier 2: AR-Capable ARKit / ARCore plane tracking Better scale checks Still uses markers for proof Higher confidence Tier 3: LiDAR iPhone/iPad iPhone Pro / iPad Pro class Depth mesh + fast scan Best automation confidence Premium accelerator only Measurement Engine Detect marker boards Estimate planes + scale Find rise, run, clear space Score confidence Flag missing views Ramp Layout Engine Choose ramp path Place sections + turns Add platforms/rails Estimate materials Prepare quote package Human Review Gate Only when confidence is low Reviewer adjusts measurements Low confidence or missing views trigger customer retakes Core Principle Every tier uses guided capture. Better hardware only increases confidence.
