LumenCam · macOS · coming soon

Your windows, in your hands.

A spatial camera for the Mac. You're cut out of your room; your apps float around you as glass panels; you move them by hand. Any webcam. Records in 4K, exports vertical, works in any call.

What it does

The 2010 format — a tiny head in the corner of a flat screen — is over.

Every screen recording and every call still looks like that. LumenCam puts you in the scene and puts the content around you, the way Vision Pro demos look — with the webcam you already have.

You're in the scene

An on-device matting model cuts you out of the room, hair and all. Windows sit behind you as frosted glass; your hands stay in front of them.

Light from the panels spills onto you; the room shifts with your head (parallax)
Auto-framing keeps you centred; panels stay put
Four glass themes, blurred / plain / real room

Windows in your hands

Pinch a panel and move it. Bring it closer to grow it. Flick it and it springs home. Point, and a spotlight follows your finger.

Any window, your iPhone's screen, a PDF, a video, a code file, live captions
Air-click real apps: the cursor snaps to the nearest button or file, so you don't have to be precise
Whatever you open appears as a new panel. Notes only you can see. A phone remote with teleprompter

Record once, export anywhere

LumenCam records the scene, not just pixels: camera, matte, every panel stream and every gesture, separately.

Change the theme or background after the fact; re-render in 4K
One take → 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for Shorts, with the panels re-laid out
Share links with chapters and clickable hotspots on the panels

Pointing at a Finder icon inside a glass panel; the target magnet highlights it

The air command palette: four round buttons around the presenter's hand

iPhone remote

Your phone is the remote. Nothing to install.

Scan the QR code LumenCam shows you and your iPhone becomes a control surface on the same Wi-Fi: record, drop chapter markers, hide or show everything, focus a panel, turn pages — and read your notes off a teleprompter that scrolls at your speed.

How it works

No headset. No green screen. Nothing leaves your Mac.

Everything runs on Apple silicon: Apple's Vision framework and a CoreML matting model for you, ScreenCaptureKit for the windows, Metal for the glass. The camera is your MacBook's, or your iPhone over Continuity Camera.

CameraBuilt-in, iPhone (Continuity Camera) or any USB webcam. 1080p in, 4K canvas out — windows stay razor-sharp.
MatteRobust Video Matting on the Neural Engine, ~20 ms a frame, temporally stable; Apple Vision as fallback.
Hands21-point hand pose, calibrated to your hand once; pinch, grab, throw, point, palette. A One-Euro filter keeps it steady.
PanelsLive app windows via ScreenCaptureKit, your iPhone's screen over USB, files, captions (Speech, on device), notes.

Air clickAccessibility snaps the cursor to the nearest real control and sends the real action — Finder opens the file, Safari follows the link.
Recording4K HEVC with noise-suppressed audio, chapter markers, and a "take" that can be re-rendered later in any theme or aspect ratio.
CallsA virtual camera for FaceTime, Zoom, Meet and Teams — the last piece, landing with the notarized build.
AutomationA local lumencam:// URL scheme, scene files, and a phone remote over Wi-Fi. Other tools can use LumenCam as their stage.
