Keijiro Takahashi is a developer who created Bibcam, a tool that synchronizes the image captured by cameras and the information collected by the LiDAR sensor of an iPhone. This is a proof of concept still in development, which can be viewed on GitHub and is available for public download. But what’s really cool about all of this this is how this software interprets the world around you
A dreamlike scenario which interprets reality in a very particular way. The result it’s a real pass, because we see how he interprets and recomposes in real time our reality.
What are dreams made of? There is an application for that
At a tweet shared on your profile, Takahashi shows us how an iPhone 13 Pro Max interprets the world. We see the streets of Shibuya, a district of Tokyo in Japan. A narrow alley where the stage is reconstructed
It gives the impression that we are in a dream. Caught in a scene from the movie Origin, where the recreated world only exists until a few meters further. To others, it’s reminiscent of the cascade of green characters seen on the Matrix screen.
The combination that makes this development of the iPhone 13 Pro Max LiDAR and its camera system is amazing. It’s a shame we cannot take advantage of this in an app downloadable from the App Store. For that it would need some changes.
Bibcam, in itself and in its current form, is not an app that can be accepted in the App Store because it lacks features. It would be enough if it had a video or photo recording mode and share it on social networks to pass the filter. So, for now, we have to settle for that.
