Qlone is a 3D scanning app based on photogrammetry for creation of 3D models on mobile devices. [1] [2] The resultant 3D models can be exported for external use.
Qlone was featured at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference in 2021. [3] [4] [5] It was also featured on BBC Click. [6]
3D scanning with Qlone requires the use of an included mat design. [7] [8] [9] The user prints the mat onto a sheet of paper, then places the object to be scanned in the centre of the mat. [10] [11] An augmented reality dome within the Qlone app guides the user through the subsequent scanning process. [12] [13] The iOS version of Qlone allows scanning without the mat. [14]
Qlone's editing features allow users to adjust 3D scanned models using texture mapping, polygon mesh size simplification, digital sculpting, cleaning and smoothing, and artistic effects. [15] [16]
Qlone exports directly to multiple 3D platforms including SketchFab, [17] i.materialise, [18] Lens Studio for Snapchat, [19] Shapeways and CGTrader. [20] Models can also be exported in different 3D formats for use in other 3D tools – OBJ, STL, FBX, USDZ, GLB (Binary gLTF), PLY, and X3D. [21] [22]
