Perform real night vision with just your iPhone!
NightVision uses the infrared FaceID camera to see in total darkness. The camera works within a range of 10 feet and can see objects that are invisible to the human eye.
TECHNOLOGY
NightVision uses a technology called TrueDepth, which is what enables Apples FaceID. The TrueDepth Camera uses an infrared emitter to project over 30,000 dots in a grid pattern that are recorded by an infrared camera. This information is used to calculate spacial depth "pixels". NightVision processes this spacial depth information into a color gradient, thus exposing the geometry of a scene without visible light.
DEVICE REQUIREMENTS
•NightVision requires a device with FaceID
•NightVision requires ARKit
NOTES
•NightVision works with just the front-facing selfie camera. We are working on a future version that will use the rear-facing LIDAR available on some Apple devices.
•NightVision does not detect infrared heat signatures
