No. 19Top Paid Utilities

When the lights are low, DarkSight draws the shape of the space around you: walls, floors, furniture and the distance to what is near, in a view that stays quiet instead of noisy.

Move over the room to measure it, the way the readout in DarkSight does. A drawing made in code, not a recording.

Live mesh

Read the room, even in the dark.

Using ARKit and LiDAR on supported devices, DarkSight lays a clean real-time mesh over nearby surfaces and detected planes, so the structure of a room is clear at a glance. A large distance readout and a short status line keep everything else out of the way.

**3.1 m. Clear path.** The readout always shows the distance to the surface ahead.

**1.8 m. Object ahead.** When something is close, the status changes and you feel a gentle haptic tap.

**2.4 m. Clear path.** A dark corridor becomes a readable shape.

**Moving-object overlay.** On iPhone and iPad, light dots follow motion in the scene, like a person walking across the path.

**Flashlight.** Turn on the light from inside the app on supported devices.

**Capture.** The shutter button saves the reality view, mesh and all.

Features

Designed to stay simple under pressure.

DarkSight focuses on the few spatial signals that matter: shape, distance, nearby surfaces, motion and immediate readability.

Real-time LiDAR mesh.

Nearby surfaces appear as a live spatial mesh with clear structure over walls, floors, furniture and planes.

Distance awareness.

A large distance display keeps nearby surfaces readable, with subtle haptics when something is close.

Surface detection.

Walls, floors, tables, doors, windows and more are recognized, so the space feels structured instead of abstract.

Clean low-light interface.

Minimal and native, designed to stay easy to read when the room is dark.

Adjustable mesh colors.

Change the mesh color for better contrast in any room, on any display.

Flashlight and capture.

Control the flashlight on supported devices, and capture the reality view to keep what you see.

Apple Vision Pro

The mesh, all around you.

On Apple Vision Pro, DarkSight scans immersively: the mesh surrounds you, and a compact control window keeps the distance in view and stays out of your way. Pick the mesh color that reads best in your room.
