Also got a pedantic sense of aesthetics? Plane App allows you to capture minimalist photos of building façades. Straight lines stay straight in a fully automated way. Get rid of perspective effects and radial lens distortions on the fly. Discover the hidden beauty of every city with #planeapp. Plane App uses computer vision algorithms to detect planes that are framed by orthogonal lines. Rectifying your camera feed in real time enables you to see how your photo will turn out before even capturing it. The algorithm does not only correct perspective effects but also radial lens distortion. That way, the straightness of lines in your scene will be preserved in your final photo. Just zoom out and see the actual transformation that is applied or let Plane App crop your photos to their ideal frame. You think you can do better than the algorithm? Drag the markers to four corner points of your object in order to refine the automatic correction. You've got these amazing pictures of ancient façades from your last trip to Rome on your DSLR? Just import them to Plane App and transform them to minimalist pieces of art. And of course you can directly share them with your friends and followers.
