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]

Qlone features

[edit]

3D scanning

[edit]

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]

3D editing

[edit]

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]

File export

[edit]

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]
