    Hello,

    I wonder if there is any chance to detect inclined planes (like slooping roof etc.) using ARFoundation(ARCore/ARKit)?

    I'm currently struggling with that feature. If there is no built-in way, does anyone has any idea on how to detect it manually for example using Point Cloud for example?

    I think that should be available for ARCore at least. I've seen videos about it before, and keynotes and so on. Have a browse hope you find an answer!

    Thank you for the answer!

    I was searching for it everywhere but unfortunately I haven't found any solutions - there is not much information about finding slopes with AR.
    I think that this functionality is not yet implemented, because slopes detection is marked as 'feature request' on ARCore Unity SDK on github: https://github.com/google-ar/arcore-unity-sdk/issues/388

    Still if anyone has any ideas for detecting slopes I would appreciate the help!
