iPhones in 2019 to come with a 3D sensor on the back too

14 November 2017
It will be a different kind of sensor, similar to Google's Project Tango and the second-gen Kinect.

Do companies really need to implement new biometrics to know this stuff? this isn't even a biometric, it's just a 3D sensor on the back to help with focus and portrait. just shut up....

                            Sony has had for years the Background Defocus. It is all software, no second cam.
                            Sony has the 3D scanning, also software. No need of second cam.
                            Sony has AR Effects by software, no need of more hardware..


                            Why don't other OEMs do the same instead of using more cameras/sensors etc?

                                    If roumours become reality. Does Apple think it can make people want 3D. Because no one else could.

                                      Should have been on there to begin with. I can see the value of it being on the back so that you can take advantage of the ability to scan items for 3D rendering - the front was strictly for login and stupid animojis. I wonder how many people have tried making themselves into turds since the iPhone X was released?

                                        Asus and Lenovo, be careful now. Apple will soon be trying to sue you for the technology they copy from you.
