Three-dimensional data can be synchronized between a first electronic device and a second electronic device. A content creation application may be running on the first electronic device and may utilize a data file describing a three-dimensional content item. A two-dimensional representation of the content item may be displayed on the first electronic device. A user may request to preview the two-dimensional representation of the content item in three-dimensions. The first electronic device may initiate a data transfer with the second electronic device. The three-dimensional data of the data file may be transferred, via a communication link, from the content creation of the first electronic device to a three-dimensional graphic rendering application at the second electronic device. The three-dimensional graphic rendering application may generate a preview of the content item in three-dimensions based on the received three-dimensional data.

Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that facilitate the creation of a 3D model for object detection based on a scan of the object. Some implementations provide a user interface that a user interacts with to facilitate a scan of an object to create 3D model of the object for later object detection. The user interface may include an indicator that provides visual or audible feedback to the user indicating the direction that the capturing device is facing relative to the object being scanned. The direction of the capture device may be identified using sensors on the device (e.g., inertial measurement unit (IMU), gyroscope, etc.) or other techniques (e.g., visual inertial odometry (VIO)) and based on the user positioning the device so that the object is in view.
