Have not done any research, but we have a small problem with measuring and cutting big tiles for a renovation (DIY). So the walls have outlets and pipes that we need to cut holes onto the tile. If we could use an app to measure the area needed for the tiles, and project on the tile where we should cut the holes would be useful if it can be done reliably. We are not professionals, but something like this could have saved us some money and time.

I don't understand why a tape measure and a t-square wouldn't have worked for this. It's literally the standard practice.
Not saying lidar will be the solution here, but I think it’s super healthy to think the way OP does. Sometimes the best solutions come from challenging the norm. Standard practice isn’t always the best possible practice.
