Trimensional is the world’s first 3D scanner for the iPhone (and iPad).
By using both the screen and front-facing camera on your iOS device, Trimensional detects the patterns of light reflecting off of your face, and creates a true 3D model.
This is not only incredible technology that’s packed into an iPhone 4, iPod Touch (4th Generation), or iPad 2, but it’s ridiculously fun.
Trimensional
For only $0.99 from the Apple App Store, you can hardly go wrong.
3D Sharing
You’ve created a fun 3D image, now what?
Share it!
Formats include:
- Still Image
Create a simple JPEG. - Animated GIF
You can create a looping, rotating 3D animation in both large and small sizes. - QuickTime Movie
A loopable movie that can be uploaded to YouTube, Facebook or Flickr.
Of course, once you create the file, you can email it, tweet it, post it, etc …
3D Graphics
Create some new graphic art!
(In-App Purchase): Export any scan as an OBJ, STL, or PLY file via email, with optional mesh smoothing. OBJ: texture-mapped polygonal model compatible with Maya, Blender, and most other 3D software packages, STL: watertight geometry suitable for 3D printing, PLY: point cloud with position (XYZ) and color (RGB) information per vertex.
Trimensional is easy to use:

- Pick from 6 different 3D rendering modes.
- View a 3D slideshow.
- New “flick” gesture to restart spinning models in 3D view.
