Litchi for DJI Phantom 2 VS Meshroom

If you want additional functionality beyond the DJI Fly, you'll almost certainly want Litchi. Source: 5 months ago

If loading the DJI app on your phone is a concern, you could use one of the Litchi apps instead (which are developed in the UK) or use the DJI controllers that have the screen and app built in, without connecting it to the Internet. Source: 5 months ago

If you are using a DJI drone, you can use https://flylitchi.com/ to do this. It uses a second cell phone and is $25. Source: 6 months ago

I think it's also worth pointing out that DJI's first-party app isn't required to operate many of their drones. Most of their drones, apart from all but the most recent (i.e. The one this announcement is about probably won't have support for a while, but the previous gen will) has support through apps like Litchi and Dronelink via the developer API, which have additional features and don't have the exact same... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

So something's changed about DJI's API as well. In the past, you could use 3rd-party apps that extended features, and offered new ones. One popular app is Litchi https://flylitchi.com However, DJI seems to have stopped updating their iOS API, so 3rd-party iOS apps won't work with any newer drones and Android stuff seems to be available only by side-loading. Perhaps there's something in the newer APIs that neither... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

It will take 2-4 times longer than default but for your usecase you may want to change the 'Downscale' attribute to 1. Source: about 2 years ago

I know this is r/fossdroid, but I don't think there is any Foss Android application capable of that. However, meshroom came into my mind. It is free and open source with linux support. The downside of it is that you can't create the model right in your phone, but you first need to take many photos to then upload to your computer and process. Source: about 2 years ago

This has been used in Video games for the Better part of decade, already. And you can do this yourself without an iphone with lidar, by taking a lot of pictures of an object from various angles, and then use something like meshroom to make a detailed 3d model of it. Source: about 2 years ago

This is using the Iphones LIDAR, (basiacally laser depth sensor) to get accurate data, but it can be done also be done without it, just with a lot of pictures of all around the object, from various angles, and some software like meshroom. Source: about 2 years ago
