About HDReye

Making it look real in 3D has never been so quick and simple.

HDReye is the first and only iOS app for capturing custom 360° HDRi images for realistic 3D lighting and compositing.

Just select your desired dynamic range, follow the prompts to shoot a bracketed multi-exposure panorama of your location, and HDReye will stitch and generate a 32-bit (.EXR format) HDRi of your location.

HDReye is an essential app for combining 3D animation realistically with footage or capturing lightmaps of any location. What used to require an expensive 360° camera or chrome ball light probe, now can be done conveniently on your phone with HDReye.

Whether you’re an independent 3D artist, VFX studio, AR developer, NFT artist, mixed reality artist or just a hobbyist - HDReye is here to make your workflow simpler and renders more realistic.

HDReye is your image-based lighting solution. Compatible with all 3D packages and render engines including: Cinema 4D, Blender, Houdini, Maya, 3D Studio Max, Adobe After Effects, Element 3D, OTOY Octane Render, Redshift, V-ray, Arnold, Unreal Engine, Unity, and more.
