Comment on Forge – mobile 3-D capture [video]parentComments−phorese12yLooks great :)In the video it looks like you are using a volumetric representation, perhaps an Octree+isosurface extraction?−nobbis12yCorrect.

Correct. It stores a volumetric signed distance function in a tree-structure, which makes mesh generation (and raytracing) simple and fast.

You can download and manually align separate captures to create a larger mesh but, no, Forge doesn't do this automatically yet.
On the roadmap, but won't be in the first version.
