I’m working on an AR mobile app for android with AR-Core, in which I want to display a Point Cloud map in front of the user.

I’ve got a .las file (LiDAR point cloud) imported in my project and the associated plugin (LiDAR Point Cloud). I can spawn a static mesh in the scene without issue, but the point cloud just doesn’t appear, even though it is visible in the blueprint thumbnail or viewport.

I tried to visualize this point cloud in a test project for windows with the fps template and the VR template and it worked without problem, which makes me think that it is android-related.

Do you have any idea ?

Did you find a solution to this? Also trying to display point cloud in VR for HTC Vive Focus 3, but doesn’t seem to be rendering when launched on the device.
