Android, Windows, and...iOS! Dot3D™ for iOS is coming soon to an iPhone near you
We're very excited to announce that Dot3D for iOS will be available early in the new year, adding a third platform of mobile 3D scanning support to our flagship application. By leveraging the LiDAR technology already built into today's Pro-level iPhones and iPads, no added hardware will be required! Please click here to sign up for exclusive updates and advance beta access.

Please note that a LiDAR-enabled iPhone/iPad will be required (iPhone 13 Pro, 13 Pro Max, 12 Pro, 12 Pro Max, iPad Pro 2021, or iPad Pro 2020) and that our existing 3D camera hardware (DPI/RealSense) will not be supported on iOS. Android and Windows will continue to support all other hardware options, with more updates also coming soon there.

3D scanning for precast concrete process monitoring and QC
The Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI) recently published an excellent paper covering the use of Structured-light three-dimensional scanning for process monitoring and quality control in precast concrete production. It's great to see this analysis of a practical application for the technology, similar to several current Dot3D client deployments.

Dot3D™ Tip of the Month:
Need to scan outdoors with a DPI kit? Consider the following options:
1. Early morning scanning (sun low on horizon)
2. Late evening scanning (sun low on horizon)
3. Introduce shade (i.e. canopy, tent, tarp, etc.)
4. Take advantage of overcast conditions when possible
5. Add a RealSense D455 Kit for full sunlight capability!
