Pokémon Go developer Niantic has acquired Scaniverse.
Developed by Toolbox AI, the mobile app allows users to capture, edit, and share 3D scans of real-world objects using just a smartphone camera.
As part of the deal, Scaniverse founder and CEO Keith Ito will join Niantic’s AR engineering team.
Also earlier this year, Niantic acquired the community gaming platform Mayhem.
