Lightcraft Jetset
lightcraft.pro
What it is
Lightcraft Jetset is an iOS application for combining computer graphics and live-action video into visual-effects shots. It displays and captures the combination in real time, using phone-camera and ARKit tracking to map a scene and align live-action footage with a 3D scene. The app supports real-time rendering of production-level USDZ models and records camera-original footage, live composites, and tracking metadata. Compositing tools include AI mattes, a green-screen keyer, and 3D screen planes. Printed floor or vertical origin markers can reset tracking. Lightcraft describes post-production workflows connecting Jetset with Unreal, Blender, and USD through Autoshot, and provides a Blender add-on plus a character-conversion tool. Scene scanning is available only in Jetset Pro and Jetset Cine, requiring a LiDAR-equipped iPhone Pro or iPad Pro. The App Store listing requires iOS 18.0 or later and an A12 Bionic chip or later.
