Infrared Camera uses on-device machine learning to intelligently identify trees, grass, and plants in your scene. AI Enhance mode applies selective infrared effects — vegetation gets bold, vibrant colors while non-vegetation areas like sky, buildings, and roads remain natural or grayscale.
How it works: The AI analyzes green channel data and color characteristics to detect foliage. For color filters, vegetation gets 30% boosted saturation for eye-popping colors. For B&W filters, vegetation gets higher contrast for that classic bright-white infrared look. All processing happens instantly on your iPhone's Neural Engine — no cloud required.
Vegetation bursts with vibrant magentas and yellows while non-vegetation areas become elegant grayscale, creating a striking artistic effect.
AI detection runs at 60fps on your live camera preview. See the selective color effect before you shoot, with instant feedback as you frame your shot.
All AI processing happens on-device using Apple's Vision framework. Zero data leaves your phone. Works completely offline.
Features
550nm Infrared — Vibrant false-color landscapes
665nm Amplified Color — High-impact yellow/gold tones
720nm Classic IR — Traditional B&W infrared
850nm Pure B&W — Maximum contrast monochrome
Fine-tune every aspect of your filters. Adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, hue shift, and even create custom IR channel formulas with RGB multipliers. Simple or advanced modes available.
Apply infrared effects to existing photos from your library. All filters and AI features work with imported images just like live captures.
Ultra Wide (0.5×), Wide (1×), 2× zoom, and Telephoto (5×) if available on your device. Switch seamlessly between lenses mid-session.
After capture, swipe between filters to see how each looks. Apply different effects without retaking the shot. Customize and export when ready.
Last filter, AI mode status, and custom adjustments are automatically saved. Pick up exactly where you left off.
Technology
Infrared Camera uses GPU-accelerated Metal shaders for real-time 60fps processing. Core Image pipelines handle full-resolution captures. AI detection leverages Apple's Vision framework for instant on-device inference.
Every filter is carefully calibrated to match classic infrared film characteristics. RGB channel formulas simulate how different wavelengths of infrared light interact with vegetation, skin tones, and landscapes.
Requirements: iPhone running iOS 15.0 or later. AI features use Apple's Vision framework (iOS 15+). All processing happens on-device — no internet required.
Common Questions
Infrared photography captures light wavelengths beyond what human eyes can see. In traditional infrared photography, vegetation reflects infrared light intensely and appears bright white or vibrant colors, while skies darken dramatically. Infrared Camera simulates this effect digitally, using AI to detect plants and apply selective color processing that recreates the distinctive infrared aesthetic — without needing expensive converted cameras or infrared film.
Infrared Camera uses Apple's Vision framework to analyze green channel data and color characteristics in real-time, identifying trees, grass, and plants in your scene. Once detected, the AI applies selective processing: for color filters, vegetation receives 30% boosted saturation for vibrant false-color effects; for black-and-white filters, vegetation gets higher contrast for the classic bright-white infrared look. All processing happens on-device using your iPhone's Neural Engine — no cloud, no data upload, completely private.
Each filter simulates a different infrared wavelength, producing distinct visual characteristics: 550nm Infrared creates vibrant false-color landscapes with magenta/yellow vegetation; 665nm Amplified Color produces high-impact gold tones with deep blue skies; 720nm Classic IR delivers traditional black-and-white infrared with bright foliage and dark skies; 850nm Pure B&W provides maximum contrast monochrome with the most dramatic tonal separation. These wavelengths match real infrared film and converted camera characteristics.
No. Infrared Camera works with any standard iPhone running iOS 15 or later — no camera modifications, no external filters, no special lenses required. The app uses computational photography and AI to simulate infrared effects digitally. While it doesn't capture true infrared light like a converted camera, it recreates the distinctive aesthetic through intelligent color processing and selective enhancement.
Yes! Infrared Camera includes photo library import. Load any existing photo from your library, and all four infrared filters plus AI vegetation detection work exactly like they do with live captures. You can apply different filters, customize settings, and export the results — perfect for revisiting favorite landscape photos with infrared aesthetics.
Completely. All AI processing happens entirely on your device using Apple's Vision framework — zero data leaves your iPhone. No cloud uploads, no analytics, no tracking. The app works completely offline. Your photos, your device, your privacy. We never see what you photograph.
Infrared Camera requires iOS 15.0 or later, which means it works on iPhone 6s and newer. AI features use Apple's Vision framework (available on iOS 15+). Real-time processing runs at 60fps on most devices. All camera lenses are supported: Ultra Wide (0.5×), Wide (1×), 2× zoom, and Telephoto (5×) if your device has them.
No. Infrared Camera is $0.99 as a one-time purchase with no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, and no premium tiers. All four infrared filters, AI vegetation detection, advanced customization, and every feature are included. Buy once, own forever.
