Photosynthesis: 2-Lens Camera

Use 100% of your camera

What it does

Photosynthesis is an innovative camera app for iPhone that takes photos from two lenses at once, then stitches them into one extraordinary result. Photosynthesis enables you to use 100% of your camera, combining the scope of the wider lens with the detail of the closer one. The app uses no generative AI, only real pixels are combined to give you the best of both lenses. iPhone Pro & Pro Max users can choose to pair 1x + Zoom, or 1x + 0.5x, or All 3 (beta), while 2-lens iPhones use 1x + 0.5x.

Photo & Video Developer Sam Shepherd Language EN + 11 More Size 132.8 MB iPhone Photosynthesis captures up to 5x the detail of a subject vs a standard 1x camera, taking photos from two lenses simultaneously and combining them, with no generative AI. Nearly every iPhone has more than one lens on the back, so why not use them? With Photosynthesis, you can use 100% of your camera to bring your memories into sharper focus. When you take a photo, Photosynthesis fires two lenses at once, then combines the results into one extraordinary photo, delivering real optical detail with no generative AI. The app matches the alignment and color of each lens to create a single cohesive image. TAKE BETTER…from apps.apple.com

  • Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

  • I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role. The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time. The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role&#x2F;priority when its time is up. One…
