The Linearis3D Photogrammetry App enables you to make precise 3D measurements with your iOS device's camera. The app automatically computes 3D point coordinates from 2D images of an object. Measurement errors smaller than 1mm can be achieved in a best case scenario. What can you do with this app? - Measure precise 3D coordinates - Measure rounded and skewed walls for custom-made kitchens or wardrobes - Measure boats to get 3D data for a custom made tarpaulin - Measure interior dimensions of vehicles to create custom made fixtures - Measure staircases for stairlift installation The Linearis3D Photogrammetry app works with paper targets. This has three advantages: - Targets make precise measurements possible - Computation times are much quicker using targets - Targets almost always work. With target you can measure almost any object regardless of its surface. For objects smaller than 1m x 1m x 1m you can achieve an accuracy better than 1mm. Be aware that accuracy depends on the size of the object, the angles from which the points are visible, the number of photographs and the condition of your iPhone. It is up to you to make sure the measurement results match your requirements. SUBSCRIPTION CONDITIONS You can export projects with up to 15 images without a subscription.
