Fuse 3d vs ModelLens

Fuse is a free 3D scanning app for iPhone that uses the hardware you already own. Seven scanning modes, each suited to different subjects and hardware: • LiDAR Mesh — fast, real-time mesh reconstruction using your iPhone's LiDAR scanner • Point Cloud — dense point cloud capture for precise spatial data • Gaussian Splat — photorealistic 3D Gaussian Splatting reconstruction • Photogrammetry — multi-photo 3D reconstruction, works on any iPhone • TrueDepth — high-precision face and close-range object scanning using the front face-id camera • CAD Scan — structured capture aimed at accurate dimensional models • Hybrid — combines rear LiDAR for overall shape with front TrueDepth for fine detail and RGB texture, for the most complete scan Export your scans as PLY, OBJ, STL, or USDZ for use in CAD software, 3D printing, AR/VR, or game engines. Fuse3D runs entirely on-device using Apple's ARKit, LiDAR, and TrueDepth sensors. Hardware Limitations: LiDAR-based modes require an iPhone/iPad Pro model with a LiDAR scanner. TrueDepth modes require Face ID hardware. Photogrammetry works on any supported device.

ModelLens is an offline 3D model viewer for iPhone and iPad. Open CAD parts, 3D-print meshes and scan point clouds the moment they arrive — no account, no upload, no network. WHY MODELLENS • 100% offline and private — no sign-in, no servers, no analytics, no tracking • Open models straight from Messages, Mail, WeChat, cloud drives or the Files app • Built for real-world sizes: smoothly loads 590k-triangle meshes and 500k-point clouds (performance varies by device) FORMATS • STL (ASCII & binary) — 3D printing meshes • STEP / STP — B-rep CAD geometry with adaptive tessellation and true topology edges (Open CASCADE kernel) • OBJ — meshes with materials • PLY — meshes and point clouds, including vertex colors FOUR RENDER MODES • Shaded — smooth solid surfaces • Wireframe — see the underlying structure • Shaded + Edges — surfaces with crisp feature edges: topological edges for CAD, triangle edges for meshes • X-Ray — translucent look-through COLORS THAT FIT YOU Seven macaron palettes (mint, matcha, peach, lemon, taro, sky, coral) drive both the interface and the 3D canvas, in light and dark mode. The default model material follows your theme. MODEL INSIGHT Live statistics: triangle and vertex counts, point counts, bounding-box dimensions, and format detection. BUILT ON OPEN SOURCE STEP support is powered by Open CASCADE (LGPL-2.1). License details are available in the app's About screen. ModelLens does not collect or transmit any data. What you open stays on your device.
