Poca Cam Puts Fictional Characters Beside You
An iPhone camera app that places 2D characters into your surroundings with floor shadows, room-matched lighting, and selfie-friendly depth.
Field notes
The camera workflow begins by scanning a floor with the rear camera, tapping a placement point, and adjusting scale with a two-finger gesture. The page describes three scene-matching behaviors—ground shadows, room brightness and color temperature, and recognition that lets a person stand in front of the character—alongside an option to import artwork the user has rights to use. Its launch cast contains seventeen original characters, while the App Store version is presented as forthcoming.
