ROS2 Connect Mobile vs Record3DStream

ROS2 Connect Mobile is a hobby project created to provide a mobile interface for monitoring ROS2 topics. It allows you to connect to a rosbridge server, subscribe to topics, visualize data in a custom dashboard, and monitor your robot in real-time. ROS2 Connect Mobile is the perfect app for robotics enthusiasts working with ROS2 (Robot Operating System). Key Features: - Real-time Communication: Easily connect to ROS2 systems and monitor their status. - Custom Dashboard: Build a personalized dashboard to monitor key metrics. - Topic Subscription: View and manage subscribed topics with a user-friendly interface. - Data Visualization: Explore sensor data and numeric information interactively. - Image Display: View image data from ROS2 topics, including camera feeds. If you have suggestions, feature requests, or find any bugs, please leave a review on the App Store. I will try my best to implement requested features or fix issues in future updates.

Record3D Stream turns your iPhone or iPad with LiDAR into a real-time 3D sensor for robotics and computer vision applications. Stream synchronized RGB images, depth maps, confidence maps, camera intrinsics, 6-DoF pose, and IMU data over WiFi or USB to your computer. Integrate easily with our Python SDK for visualization and data processing, or use our ROS2 driver to publish sensor data as standard ROS2 topics (PointCloud2, Image, LaserScan) — perfect for robotics pipelines. Features: - Real-time RGBD streaming over WiFi or USB - LiDAR depth maps with confidence data - Full camera intrinsics and 6-DoF pose (ARKit) - IMU data (accelerometer + gyroscope) - Live depth visualization on device - Low-latency binary protocol with per-connection backpressure - Python SDK for easy integration - ROS2 Jazzy driver with RViz2 visualization - Camera-to-robot calibration tools Perfect for robotics researchers, 3D scanning enthusiasts, AR/VR developers, and anyone who needs affordable real-time depth sensing. Requires an iPhone or iPad with LiDAR sensor (iPhone 12 Pro or later, iPad Pro 2020 or later).
