Capture ground data

Walk along or around the area of interest. PIX4Dcatch automatically records video frames with position and orientation information.

Track progress

Thanks to augmented reality, get live feedback on the covered area and the completeness of the scan with a 3D mesh layer overlayed on the video frame (only on Apple iPad Pro and Apple iPhone 12 Pro equipped with LiDAR sensor).

Pause and restart

Pause the recording at any time. The augmented reality feedback remains on your device’s screen and shows you which parts have been covered already.

upload images to cloud and inspect models

Finish

Upload the captured images to PIX4Dcloud or export them to PIX4Dmapper to generate accurate and easy to share 3D models and point clouds. Measure distances, areas, and volumes, and perform virtual inspections.

High quality 3D outputs from your pocket

Utilize the power of photogrammetry technology to reconstruct reality in 3D

Easy capturing

Everyone can get only the data that matters to create ground 3D models, with one tap. Scanning is done with real-time 3D meshing for scene completion feedback.

Actionable data

Unlike a standard video, PIX4Dcatch takes advantage of the GPS and IMU data from the mobile device for the generation of scaled and georeferenced 3D outputs.

Integrated in Pix4D’s ecosystem

As part of Pix4D’s products ecosystem, PIX4Dcatch enables users to expand their business offering, creating ground 3D models within no time.

Bringing accurate 3D scanning to mobile devices

From surveying to public safety, create a model of your scanned objects for use in different industries

Surveying

Create digital surface models, point clouds, 3D models, and true orthomosaics of the terrain.

Construction

Quickly and accurately collect, process, and visualize as-built measurements and 3D models, even in the most demanding conditions.

Underground utilities

Anyone can accurately map underground utilities in a few minutes. Walk with your device or attach it to a trolley or vehicle.

Public safety

Document and recreate crime scenes, record evidence, and provide a clear picture for investigators and forensic teams.

Capture and digitize any physical object around you in 3D

Colored 3D models from ground images

Scan, export and edit your target object and easily share it with anyone
