The best apps to take advantage of the LiDAR of the iPhone 12 Pro.
Contents
The iPhone 12 Pro includes a new sensor in its rear camera module. It is a LiDAR, Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging, a sensor capable of determine the distance from a laser emitter to an object.
This sensor is capable of measuring depth and distances around us, which is very useful in photography and augmented reality applications.
That is why today we bring you a collection with the best apps to take advantage of the LiDAR sensor of the iPhone 12 Pro, which is also included in the iPad Pro.
6 applications to put the LiDAR sensor to the test
Measurements
This app is installed by default on iOS, and is one of the most underrated. With her you can take fairly accurate measurements with your iPhone’s camera, and with the iPhone 12 Pro the experience improves.
He level of precision that this app achieves with the LiDAR sensor is amazingYou can even use it to measure a person’s height.
RoomScan LiDAR
One of those apps that shows the full potential of the LiDAR sensor that we find in the iPhone 12 and iPad Pro. With this app you can scan your home to create a highly accurate three-dimensional map. It is one of the best.
IKEA Place
This app already works with the augmented reality of other Apple devices, and allows us place furniture and decoration items in our home to see how they would look.
Thanks to the LiDAR sensor of the iPhone 12 Pro and iPad Pro, the placement of objects in augmented reality will be much more accurate.
MeasureKit – AR Ruler Tape
This is an app similar to Apple but with more options. It allows us to measure almost anything thanks to ARKit, and with LiDAR sensors the precision will be higher.
LiDAR 3D Scanner
This app is designed to scan your house or different objects in 3D. The best thing about LiDAR Scanner 3D is that we can make 3D models and export them to various formats such as USDZ, OBJ, STL or PLY.
ARia’s Legacy – AR Escape Room
Finally we have an incredible augmented reality game. It’s about a escape room in augmented reality that we can play without leaving the room. It can be played with any Apple device from recent years, but with the LiDAR of the iPhone 12 Pro you will have a better experience.
We have many applications compatible with the LiDAR sensor of the iPhone 12 Pro and iPad Pro, and this is just the beginning. Something big is brewing and LiDAR will have a lot to do with it.
