RobotVision iOS App

Turn your iPhone into an AI Vision Sensor

Run on-device YOLO object detection, ARKit 3D distance estimation, and local REST service coordinates in real-time. Purpose-built for robotic arm pick-and-place automation.

Core Capabilities

Designed for Robotic Autonomy

Powerful on-device processing designed to replace expensive industrial cameras with a simple iPhone.

Real-time YOLO Model

Runs YOLO26x custom models locally. Optimized to recognize colored workpieces (red, green, blue, white) with adjustable confidence limits.

ARKit 3D Raycasting

Combines 2D bounding boxes with ARKit spatial depth. Projects virtual rays to extract real-world coordinates and metric dimensions.

On-Device REST API

Runs a lightweight HTTP server directly on iOS. Exposes endpoints like /detect and /capture for immediate backend integration.

Neural Engine Speed

Configured to run on Apple Neural Engine (ANE) to maintain 60 FPS UI rendering, low GPU stress, and low thermal drift.

Pixel to Physical Space Pipeline

A robust coordinate transition pipeline from pixel coordinate space to real-world 3D metric coordinates.

01

1. 2D Object Detection

YOLO identifies object boundary boxes on the screen to calculate their 2D pixel centers.

02

2. 3D ARKit Raycast

A ray is projected from the camera lens to the physical surface to determine depth coordinates.

03

3. SIMD Metric Math

Computes the actual object distance (m) and dimensions (cm) using hardware-accelerated vectors.

04

4. REST API Dispatch

The FastAPI backend fetches the coordinate array over a local Wi-Fi Hotspot REST request.

05

5. Downstream Integration

Downstream applications (such as a sorting conveyor, robotic arm controller, AR visualization hud, or inventory database) consume coordinates instantly.
