Could you build this?

Partial While an iOS app wrapper is straightforward, millimeter-precise pupillary distance measurement requires calibrated computer vision and hardware depth sensing.

What it would actually take: The app requires iOS native development (Swift) utilizing ARKit, TrueDepth camera API (AVFoundation), and Vision framework to map 3D facial landmarks and calculate optical axes with sub-millimeter precision. Developers need expertise in optical geometry, depth point-cloud processing, and camera calibration across different iPhone camera sensor modules.
