Thankyou for the PTAM link, I saw that years ago and was originally looking for that when I found the LSD-SLAM link! Even better, it lead me to DTAM which is amazingly much more robust. Time to learn how to do GPGPU processing on Android...

As for the using an AR game as cover for 3D scanning and mapping of the world at large, technically it's a grand idea but on the other hand the privacy implications would be immense. You'd have to be very careful how you did it.
