ZIGCAM is an application for building virtual production prototypes and new visual production workflows. Using NDI and NDI metadata, it emulates the iPad and iPhone as devices capable of transmitting depth data and camera data in real time. Because it uses NDI, it can be used out-of-the-box with various development environments such as TouchDesigner and Unreal Engine, as well as broadcast applications such as OBS. With Tablet or Smartphone, you can use LiDAR's highly accurate depth data along with camera images in your favorite PC application. This application is also very simple and secure. This application will allow you to receive the following information to your PC or other device for as long as you want, but will stop all communication the moment you press the "Sending!" button in the application. ・Camera Data ・True Depth (Face Tracking) ・Smoothed Depth (LiDAR) ・Estimated Depth ・Various other ARKit data ZIGCAM provides real-time Face Tracking functionality using the TrueDepth API, but we do not collect, use, disclose, share, or retain any of this data.
