Wow this is a great idea and I wish my local climbing gym had something like that. Maybe it is a good idea to put a help section for every route and visualize this.

I’m a very active climber, and record a lot of my climbs. I think at a glance there are two things that would make me hesitant to start using this. Firstly, my gym rotates sets weekly and re-recording each wall each week seems repetitive. Secondly and more importantly, I’m not sure how valuable information this would be. Maybe for outdoor problems, or system boards? It’s inarguably really cool, but I’m not sure how I’d actually incorporate into my sessions.

On route rotation, maybe the gym will be responsible for uploading the scan. My local gym uses an app to manage route. People view what route is available on a wall. It is just a label saying "red is a V4", no photos, and every month there is a leaderboard. People apparently use it. And occasionally people share their beta there.
For outdoor problems, I imagine it will be more like a map, and recording be taken with a drone. This is in contrast to the climbing magazine with plain photos of route.
I also think the usefulness decline as climbing ability increase. At the end of the day, climber just want to climb. But maybe there is some strava angle I can explore.
Appreciate your feedback, thank you!

This is an interesting idea. I was wondering if the app contain following features could make it better, loved to discuss them:
1. There will be a weekly weekly leaderboard on the app for different walls and routes. Climbers need upload and share videos of their attemptes to qualify for the leaderboard. Since the app could resolve the input video into 3D/4Dspace, it could automatically determine and calculate the time that each climber takes to finish the route. The leaderboard resets every week, based on the gym's route-setting schedule.
2. For beginners, it can be difficult for them to identify the correct sequence of moves. If you could partnered with the gyms to place a QR code on each wall, climbers could scan it to view the recommended beta or move sequence on the app when they are stuck. That would be really helpful.

This is awesome. Being able to "walk" around the climber is such a cool idea!
