The topic of photogrammetry is covered in the session titled "Discover area mode for Object Capture" at WWDC 2024. This session introduces a new loading API for photogrammetry samples, which simplifies the process of reconstructing models from images. The API allows for the inclusion of various data properties such as RGB image data, depth maps, gravity vectors, and optional object masks. This makes it easier to create custom photogrammetry sessions and pipelines.
For more details, you can refer to the Discover area mode for Object Capture (06:23) session, specifically the chapter on the Data Loading API.
