## Description

Unlock the World in Points & Colors. Create, view and export point cloud data with colorful visualizations.

Explore and reveal the world in an entirely new way with DepthEye, a unique point cloud scanner app. Each capture transforms familiar spaces into a digital world, where depths are visualized through a color-coded gradient of depth effects. Close objects come alive in vibrant reds, while distant ones fade into cool blues, with yellows and greens defining the spaces in between. For an added touch of realism, toggle to view the actual colors of your surroundings. You can also use surface colors to better see different walls, floors, and objects.

Inspired by the hypnotic visuals of industrial LiDAR scans, this app reveals the world as if all warmth has been stripped away, leaving behind a surreal digital beauty.

While scanning, DepthEye gives you simple guidance to help improve your scan. You can also enable Live Scanning, where older points slowly disappear for a more dynamic effect.

Highlights:
- Capture detailed LiDAR point clouds
- Get guidance while scanning
- Adjust point size for optimal visualization
- Customize the color palette to suit your style (surface, natural, depth, neon and reflectance)
- Export your scans in .PLY point cloud format (XYZ, RGB, Normal values)
- View scanned point clouds directly in the app, with tools to remove noise, measure and crop.
- Explore scanned or imported point clouds at full scale in AR.

This app requires a built-in LiDAR sensor (iPhone Pro models).

## Rankings

- #245,206 — Overall

## Review summary

DepthEye offers an intriguing pocket LiDAR experience with varied viewing modes and data sharing. However, users consistently report instability and drift during scans, unclear hardware compatibility details, and export/interoperability limitations that limit external use. Bugs and the need for updates are common themes, alongside privacy concerns from at least one reviewer. Overall, strong concept but notable gaps in stability and data interoperability.

### Pros

- Innovative pocket-level 3D LiDAR scanning concept for iPhone with LiDAR sensors.
- Multiple viewing modes and depth visualization for scans.
- Ability to save and share scans, aiding data portability.

### Cons

- Scanning can drift or behave unpredictably when stationary, affecting accuracy.
- Compatibility information is unclear; specific LiDAR hardware/model requirements are not well stated.
- Export/interoperability limitations hinder use in other tools (no video playback, no OBJ/LAZ/LAS export, ArcGIS Pro import issues).
- General bugs and stability issues; ongoing updates needed.
