bitwave vs PXLCAM

Bitwave is a creative-tech camera for making experimental photos and videos in real time. Explore visual systems built around ASCII, dithering, halftone, stippling, signal processing, pixelation, color manipulation and Computer Vision. Point the camera, choose a preset and reshape the image live. Bitwave is designed less like a traditional filter app and more like a visual instrument for experimentation. FEATURES • Realtime visual camera effects • ASCII, dither, halftone, stipple, signal and glitch-inspired processing • Computer Vision masks and object-based effects • Live photo and video capture • Import and edit existing photos and videos • LUTs and color adjustments • Effect-specific controls • Save modified effects as custom presets • Metal-powered realtime rendering • Video export and sharing COMPUTER VISION Use people, faces, objects and image regions as part of the visual processing itself. Computer Vision can reshape where and how an effect appears instead of simply placing a filter over the image. CUSTOM PRESETS Adjust an effect, change its color treatment, CV mode and parameters, then save the result as your own preset for instant reuse. MADE FOR EXPERIMENTATION Bitwave is built for visual artists, musicians, VJs, photographers, creative coders and anyone interested in experimental digital imagery. There is no required workflow. Open the camera, choose a visual system, modify it and see where the image goes. Bitwave Pro unlocks unlimited photo capture, live video recording and video export.

PXLCAM is a camera that pushes back. Every photo you take has a footprint. Higher resolution means bigger files, which take more energy to store and share. Most cameras are in a race to capture more. PXLCAM goes the other way. SHOOT Take photos in a retro, lo-fi aesthetic – grainy, dithered, and intentionally low-resolution. Smaller files by design, lighter on storage and energy. STAMP Every photo is stamped with the date, the time, and the Climate Clock: a live countdown showing how long scientists estimate we have left to meaningfully act on climate change. It makes an abstract deadline personal, embedded into the everyday. The clock ticks in every shot, quietly asking: what are you capturing, and why does it matter? SHARE Browse your shots in the gallery and share them with the people who should see them. A camera is a tool for noticing. PXLCAM is an invitation to pay attention – to a world worth capturing, worth protecting.
