Pattern Forward’s shared photo-capture tool
Credibility concern recorded. The source reference remains available for verification and correction.
A test photo-capture page explains what a shared link collects, where it is stored, who can see it, and what a ruler-measurement mode sends.
- For
- People capturing patterns or measuring a ruler
- Worth noticing
- A ruler-measuring link also sends two pre-capture previews and motion readings; those are deleted after measurement, while the numbers remain.
Field notes
The page labels itself a test version and says captures are held on a private EU server, not sent to an AI service. It lists photos, camera settings, tilt, browser details, and generated files among retained material; deletion is manual and must be requested from the person who shared the link. For ruler measurement, the page says two images taken just before the photo and motion readings are discarded after measurement, with only the numbers retained.
