Signal Loss

Signal Loss Turn any photo into a living, moving 3D scene. Signal Loss transforms a single image into a dense point cloud that you can move through, animate, distort, and record. Create cinematic camera moves, surreal particle effects, and impossible perspectives from photos that were never captured in 3D. Use a portrait, landscape, room, sculpture, illustration, or archive photo. Signal Loss reconstructs depth directly on your iPhone with no cloud processing and no special hardware required. For iPhone Pro users, LiDAR capture allows you to walk around an object and build glitchy and unaligned point clouds from the real world. // FROM PHOTO TO MOTION Every pixel becomes a 3D point colored from the original image. The result is not a filter applied to a photograph. It's a navigable scene made of particles. Move through the image. Orbit around it. Push into impossible viewpoints. Record camera paths and export finished videos directly from your phone. Render scenes with up to 1 million points in real time. // 32 REAL-TIME EFFECTS All effects run live on the GPU with instant feedback. RAW · FOG · SLICE · CONTOUR · ECHO · BLOOM · FALSE COLOR · WIRE · DUST · WAVE · LINES · SWARM · VEIL · PRISM · RIFT · BORE · DRIFT Transform images into atmospheric fog banks, swarming particle fields, prismatic distortions, structural wireframes, abstract landscapes, and glitch artifacts. //SIGNAL LOSS Every photograph contains missing information. Areas the camera never saw. Signal Loss reconstructs those spaces using procedural particles, atmospheric noise, and generated structure. Choose subtle reconstruction or push scenes into abstraction through multiple artifact modes designed around absence, depth, and collapse. // DRIFT Animate entire point clouds with procedural motion. Create flowing currents, depth-reactive movement, spiraling fields, and organic motion that turns static images into living environments. // CAMERA MOVES & VIDEO EXPORT Signal Loss was built for motion. Create cinematic animations using built-in camera paths including Orbit, Pull In, Pull Out, Sway, Crane, and other movement systems designed specifically for point clouds. Export: • 4K and 8K stills • High-resolution video loops (H.264) • Transparent PNGs with alpha • Point clouds (PLY) for Blender, MeshLab, and CloudCompare • Spatial stereoscopic scenes for Apple Vision Pro // CONTROLS Touch-driven navigation with precise creative control. Adjust density, scale, depth, color, atmosphere, and filter parameters in real time. Customize backgrounds, camera behavior, and scene rendering to create anything from subtle depth photography to fully abstract particle environments. // PRIVACY Everything happens on your device. Photos are processed locally and never uploaded to a server. Signal Loss is experimental creative software. Unexpected results are part of the process.
