Awesome app

Awesome app for recording depth information. Using this for data capture, would be great to have:
grayscale mode
Known distance-color mapping

These would make the video/images very useful for further processing.
Thanks!

Had promise, seemingly abandoned

This app was awesome when it first came out some 4 odd years ago. But the updates stopped a year into its release. The front sensor works well, the rear sensor works too but it has had visual artifacts for the longest. Beware.

It works mostly! For 99 cents can’t complain much.

The front camera works perfectly. While the rear lidar has some glitches. I hope the developer updates it! I’d pay another dollar to help fund the development time!

Neat and sorta mostly works

The rear view is very low resolution, which the app intro does warn about. On an iPhone 14 Pro though, the screen glitches every couple seconds.

The front facing view works fine and has much better resolution. It can capture decently between about 8 inches up to a few feet. Past 6 feet things get pretty vague and you’d probably have to already know what you’re looking at to make things out.

For 99 cents I’m okay with the fun factor and supporting a small developer. However I do wish the back facing view wasn’t buggy at least.

Works poorly

Very very buggy and glitchy

FAQ

What does the LiDAR & Infrared Night Vision app do?

This app uses your iOS device's LiDAR and infrared sensors to allow you to see in complete darkness. It generates a depth map of your surroundings, representing distances with different colors. It also includes a 'scare mode' to capture friends' reactions.

What devices are compatible with this app?

The app requires an iOS device with FaceID. For full functionality using both front and back cameras, iPhone 12 Pro, iPad Pro, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max are recommended. Other FaceID devices can use the front camera.

How does the app work in the dark?

Unlike regular cameras, LiDAR and infrared sensors generate their own light, which is invisible to the human eye. This allows them to function effectively in complete darkness without needing ambient light.

What are the main uses for this app?

Primary uses include seeing in the dark without a flashlight, showcasing your device's advanced camera capabilities, and using the 'scare mode' to create jump-scare moments with friends. It can also be used to explore how LiDAR and infrared technology works.
