Polycam

Polycam is the world's most popular 3D scanning app for iOS, web and Android.

Last updated 1 year ago

Polycam is a great 3D scanning app that is capable of scanning in 3 different modes;

LiDAR

Requires a Pro iOS device, can very quickly scan a space using a depth sensor with textures taken from the video input.

Photogrammetry

Can be done from any phone or with their web interface. Takes photo or video input and reconstructs a 3D model from them (Requires Polycam Pro).

RoomPlan

Apple's RoomPlan technology utilizes the camera and LiDAR Scanner on iPhone and iPad to create a 3D floor plan of a room, including key characteristics such as dimensions and types of furniture.
