MeshBox vs Open3D

MeshBox turns any real-world object into a 3D model — ready for your slicer, your portfolio, or your next remix. Point your iPhone Pro or iPad Pro at anything — a trinket, a prototype, a vintage miniature — and walk around it. MeshBox's LiDAR-powered capture pipeline reconstructs the geometry on-device and delivers a clean, printable USDZ mesh in minutes. FEATURES • LiDAR 3D scanning powered by Apple's Object Capture • On-device mesh reconstruction — no servers, no uploads • Interactive 3D preview: drag to rotate, pinch to zoom • Organize scans into color-coded groups (albums) • Drag-and-drop curation — build collections in seconds • Export USDZ directly to any slicer, modeling app, or AR viewer • Liquid Glass design, native to iOS 26 • Optimized for both iPhone Pro and iPad Pro WHO IT'S FOR • 3D printing enthusiasts capturing objects to remix, resize or reprint • Tabletop hobbyists archiving minis, terrain and busts • Product designers and prototypers iterating on physical mockups • Researchers, museums and archivists preserving objects digitally • Anyone who wants to hold a memory in three dimensions HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap "Scan object" and choose a quality preset 2. Walk slowly around your subject — on-screen guidance keeps you on track 3. The on-device photogrammetry engine builds a textured mesh 4. Preview, name, group, and export straight to your printer or slicer REQUIREMENTS MeshBox needs a device with LiDAR: iPhone 12 Pro or later (Pro / Pro Max models) or iPad Pro (2020 or later). A well-lit, flat surface gives the best scans. PRIVACY Your scans stay on your device. Nothing is uploaded, processed in the cloud, or shared without your explicit action. No accounts, no sign-ups.

Open3D Viewer is the fastest free 3D model viewer for STL, GLB, OBJ, FBX, STEP, DXF, USDZ, PLY, 3MF, GLTF, IGES, DAE and 3DS files. Open any 3D file in seconds, view it in AR with Apple Quick Look, and check it for 3D printing — no account, no sign-up, no cloud upload. Your files never leave your iPhone or iPad. Whether you're a 3D-printing hobbyist checking an STL before slicing, a 3D artist previewing a GLB or FBX, or a CAD user opening a STEP or DXF, Open3D Viewer opens it instantly — without the paywalls and login screens other 3D viewers force on you. SUPPORTED 3D FILE FORMATS • Mesh: STL, GLB, GLTF, OBJ, PLY, 3MF, FBX, DAE, 3DS, USDZ • CAD: STEP / STP, IGES / IGS, DXF Export & convert Turn OBJ, PLY, 3MF, FBX, DAE, 3DS and more into STL for 3D printing or GLB for sharing. Files save straight to your Downloads folder — no extra apps, no online converter, everything happens on-device. A 3D VIEWER THAT DOES THE BASICS RIGHT • Open files from Files, email, downloads, or any "Open with" menu • Smooth orbit, pan and zoom touch controls • Render modes: solid, wireframe, X-ray, textured, matte • Wireframe overlay — see the geometry on top of the rendered surface • Preset camera views (front, side, top, perspective) • Light and dark themes • 5 background colours + 6 HDRI lighting environments (studio, sunset, dawn, dusk, dark, white) • Play built-in animations • View 3D models in AR via Apple Quick Look (USDZ) • Capture a screenshot or a rotating GIF and share it • Recent files with auto-generated thumbnails • Full model specs: triangle count, vertices, materials, textures, bounding box BUILT FOR 3D PRINTING • Print-readiness check: manifold / watertight detection, overhangs, wall thickness • Bed-fit check for popular printers (Bambu A1, Prusa MK4, Ender 3, Bambu X1C) • Rough weight, filament length and cost estimates • Measure distances on the model • Cross-section / clipping plane to inspect interiors • Scale and resize tool • Convert and export between GLB and STL LOCALIZED The interface automatically follows your device language. Currently available in English, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Hindi, Japanese, and Chinese. NO ACCOUNT. NO CLOUD. NO NONSENSE. • No sign-up, ever • 100% on-device. Works offline. • We never read, scan, or upload your files • We don't track which files you open The STL viewer and GLB viewer that makers, 3D artists and engineers actually want: clean, fast, and local. Measurements and print-readiness figures are estimates, not a replacement for a slicer or proper measuring tools. See the in-app Disclaimer.
