Description
Pix4Dcatch is a mobile application developed by Pix4D, designed for capturing high-quality 3D data using the camera of a smartphone or tablet. It is primarily used for creating 3D models and point clouds through photogrammetry, which involves capturing multiple images of an object or environment from different angles. These images are then processed to generate accurate 3D models.
Pix4Dcatch is often used in industries such as surveying, construction, agriculture, and architecture. The app allows users to quickly collect data in the field, which can then be processed using Pix4D’s cloud-based or desktop software for further analysis and use in mapping, modeling, or design work.
Georeferenced 3D scanning
PIX4Dcatch can create detailed and georeferenced 3D models using both photogrammetry and LiDAR technology from your smartphone.
Versatile processing options
Flexible solutions for processing, including direct upload to PIX4Dcloud for easy processing and/or export to PIX4Dmatic for advanced control.
RTK compatibility
Achieve absolute centimeter accuracy in your 3D models with PIX4Dcatch and RTK.

Ease of use
Use AR to easily detect GCPs and see as-built and CAD design overlays for construction analysis.
Workflow

Capture ground data
Walk along or around the area of interest to scan, and PIX4Dcatch will automatically record video frames with positional and orientation information.
Ensure completeness
Experience real-time AR feedback on your scan’s coverage and completion with a 3D mesh overlay and point cloud live viewer.


Pause and restart
Pause the capture whenever needed. The live viewer continues to display on your device, displaying the areas you’ve already covered.
Export and process
Upload the captured images to PIX4Dcloud or export them to PIX4Dmapper or PIX4Dmatic to generate accurate, measurable, and easy to share 3D models and point clouds.
