Mobile News - Seene, a 3D Imaging App


Seene is an iPhone App that lets you capture, share, and browse 3D photographs.  It was just named the UK's most innovative mobile App company on display at Mobile World Congress.
The App, which doesn't rely on specialised camera equipment but rather sensors to capture 2D photographs with extra depth data, lets you capture and manipulate an object or subject in real-time...and in 3D. Specifically, it captures a photo with the iPhone's accelerometer, and then renders a 3D structure. You can rotate your iPhone to view the structure at different angles and alter the perspective of the image.


Seene basically plots points on your subject, and then uses parallax to determine the subject's location in space when you move your iPhone around. It finally calculates the depth of the object based on how it is warped when you move your iPhone around. The team behind Seene eventually wants the app to capture a full 3D photograph for 360-degree viewing. It's also developing a Seene app for Android, according to BBC.

The app supports sharing via Facebook, Twitter, its own public gallery and an embedded web link. An account is required to share and save your seene, which is exported in a proprietary file format.  Because of the format, seenes can only be viewed on the app’s website or within the program.
