Boxer3D: AR 3D Object Detection on iPhone Using YOLO and LiDAR
tom_doerr · x · 2026-08-12
The open-source GitHub project Boxer3D demonstrates how to achieve AR 3D object detection on iPhones. The workflow combines YOLO11n for 2D object detection, utilizes iPhone's LiDAR for depth information, and finally employs BoxerNet (from Meta Research) to lift 2D bounding boxes into 7-DoF 3D bounding boxes, rendered in the real world using SceneKit.
Requirements:
- iPhone 12 Pro or later (LiDAR required)
- iOS 16.0+
- 450 MB storage for models
