PIX4Dcatch: 3D scanner

Great multi function product but outputs contradict. When exporting a scan, photo geo tags are in gps (lat/lon). When exporting GCP’s, coordinates are in SPC (northing/easting). Works great when staying contained within PIX4D environment. However limits using in 3rd party software (ie Faro 3D or Leica Map 360). Having the GCP’s export in GPS coordinates as well would be beneficial to be able to use the viDoc to pickup extra points on a scene and just add them to an existing project like a total station or gnss receiver. * Using RTK and referring to csv outputs

The app fails in so many levels, developers step your game up, stop being lazy.

Verry good!

WHAT A SCAM After a few updates’, I can’t export either my PHOTOS or 3d models? The developer requires that I create an account. I DO NOT WANT ANY ACCOUNTS !!! Regardless, the app is trash as the models are of quite poor quality (and the textures are based on the embedded photos taken with a very low resolution)

A quick 45sec scan took 4 days to process. Would not recommend for business applications.

Long time pix4d user for drone based 3D modeling. PIX4DCatch is the perfect ground based photo capture tool. Depth images from the iPhone 12 Pro make really crisp models. Always improving software makes capture and quality estimation in the field a breeze! Well done.

Upload doesn’t work for Dropbox or OneDrive. Mesh doesn’t display like past versions. Captured 640 images in a few minutes, but didn’t build an accurate model. Needs instructions or tips, and needs some bugs fixed. Also why does it export tons of files, if only the photos are processed? Good idea, but it needs improved. Been waiting for an update for months.

Low resolution 3D models! DroneDeploy is so much better. The app is hard to use and I wouldn’t recommend this at its current state to anyone.

I downloaded this as soon as it came out, and played around with it without a subscription. Now I need to pay at least $160 a month to use the photos I’ve already taken? Pix4D’s photogrammetry engine is already garbage compared to actual reality capture software, so why did they think they could magically simplify a complex science? Waving your phone around and taking a zillion terrible pictures isn’t going to generate anything useable. Buy literally anything else.

It won’t pull up the keyboard to type my email and password... got a fix??
