Could you build this?
No Accurate rust detection and physical area measurement requires specialized computer vision models trained on industrial corrosion datasets and complex integration with Apple ARKit/LiDAR depth-mapping APIs.
What it would actually take: The stack would require an iOS application using ARKit and scene depth mesh reconstruction coupled with CoreML. A custom segmentation model (e.g., Mask R-CNN or YOLOv8-seg) trained on annotated datasets of surface corrosion and oxidation is needed. Calibration algorithms must project 2D image masks onto 3D point cloud surfaces from LiDAR to reliably calculate real-world surface area and span under varying lighting and angles.
