Recon-3D is a scanning application that fuses photogrammetry and the lidar sensor on the iPhone/iPad Pro. The data can be processed on the cloud or in case of sensitive data, directly on the device only with no data transmitted over the internet. The app provides optional scaling via April Tags which immediately adjusts the scale of the 3D model to match real-world reference measurements. The data can be exported to other programs for inspection, analysis and visualization in e57 format.

Incredible, Accurate and Easy to Use

This app is absolutely one of the best purchases I have made from the App Store. I cannot believe how well the app works and how accurate the data collected is. The app is super easy to use. I have personally tested the accuracy using both hand measurements and commercial grade 3-D scanners. It simply works and provides a great looking 3-D model from the data captured. Each time I scan I am even more impressed. Using it on passenger cars, and even tractor trailers I can get all of the measurements I need to complete my task. I have tried most every scanner app that I can find and nothing compares to this. I know a tremendous amount of work and research went into this product and it truly delivers. Best of all there is free software that you can use to view, edit, measure and even animate the results. Using the models in commercial grade software is easy and impressive as well.

Great forensic 3D mapping App for Apple products

This is a great app for iPhones and iPads that have the LIDAR functionality. While you can use targets to enhance the accuracy, I’ve found that it’s accurate enough for most of my 3D reconstruction cases “right out of the box”! That makes this an amazing tool for many forensic metrology applications at a price point significantly lower than traditional field laser scanning tools. It gets better with every release so I always look forward to regular improvements and additional functionality. This is a great App at a great price, well worth my investment!!

Accurate Forensic Scanning in your Pocket

The Recon 3D app leverages sensor fusion, LiDAR, and photogrammetry to turn the iPhone 13 Pro into a 3D scanner that provides a highly accurate 3D model for forensic analysis. The fact that it is possible to accomplish such a task with a smartphone is insane. I’m not to the point where I will use it as a standalone scanner, but I’m getting close. A few more improvements to make the scanning process more robust and responsive and Recon 3D may replace my tripod laser scanner for many scan jobs.Well done to the development team!

Thanks Jcarter! We hope that with your input and help, we'll get to where you will use it more frequently. Happy scanning!

Best Forensic Scanning App

No other app on the market compares to Recon3D. The data is accurate, and because of the sensor fusion, produces a point cloud that isn’t fuzzy like other apps. The data is some of the best handheld scan data I’ve seen and rivals some structured light handheld scanners on the market. The processing time is getting faster and the file sizes are very manageable. I can’t wait to see where this app goes from here!
