ARCore how to set point cloud in Unity

Sorry i am new at ARCore and augmented reality. I have a general question about PointCloud class in Unity.

My question is: Would it be possible to import a point cloud of a room which is scanned by kinect or etc, to Unity to use as PointCloud in an AR application. As far as i understand if it is possible to register the points relative to device coordinate system and use these points instead of the points generated by the phone, the accuracy of SLAM of ARCore can be increased.

I would be happy if anyone can help. Thanks.

You can do this by using Point Cloud Free Viewer from the asset store, but only up to 10-15 million points. I'm not sure how to do it specifically for ARCore, but you can use Vuforia which runs on Android. Here's a PDF detailing this process: https://www.nctechimaging.com/downloads-files/vuforia_application_notes.compressed.pdf
