A new report from the star analyst
of the moment,Ming-Chi Kuo, completesinformation
heard recentlyabout the 3D capabilities of the future iPhone 8 which should
arrive this year. According to the specialist from the KGI Securities firm, the camera
front of the Apple smartphone version 2017 would integrateabilities
3D imagingfor face object recognition and much more
more, underpinned by aradiation technology
infrared:
For this FaceTime camera with 3D features, Kuo cites uses such as
as the creation of 3D self-portraits, which can for example be used
in games in place of the hero's head, but also recognition
face recognition and iris recognition. This last feature could
then be able to unlock the iPhone, in addition to a Touch ID
Who,
as we have seen recently, would find itself hidden under the OLED screen
edge to edge.
But the 3D capabilities of the front photo sensor could also be
used fordetect distances, for photography
for example, continuing what the dual rear sensor already does
of the iPhone 8 for the portrait effect, but also for more uses
complex, with the modeling of any object in the environment.
To support his claims, Kuo relies in particular on the acquisition of the
CompanyPrimeSensein 2013 by Apple, a specialized firm
in the development of 3D modeling algorithmsthat we were talking about
ici, and the collaboration of the Cupertino firm with the company
Lumentum, specialist in the manufacture of components for
des applications 3D.
He ends by saying that these innovative capacities underpinned by these
technologies related to 3D imaging could give the iPhone a head start
negligible over its Android competitors for several years and a
specificity exclusive to the iPhone at the same time.
Still, with all these functions that analyzes and rumors
see the arrival of the iPhone 8, the latter seems more and more
impressive. If all these innovations, including the edge-to-edge OLED screen, the
wireless charging, improved waterproofing, new design while
glass and 3D modeling are indeed confirmed, not only the
current predictions will be verified, but the price should also
make a leap compared to the 2016 generation. This has also
already been said, the iPhone 8 could actually exceed €1,000, even
for the smallest capacity.
Would we then move towards an iPhone 8 serving above all as a technological demo?
for Apple, without any compromise on the selling price? What about
do you think?
