Apple developing new 3D sensor system for 2019 iPhone rear camera, according to Bloomberg

<div class="feat-image">(https://9to5mac.files.wordpress.com/2017/11/iphone-x-camera.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=1600)</div><p>Bloomberg today reports (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-11-14/apple-is-said-to-target-rear-facing-3-d-sensor-for-2019-iphone) that Apple is developing a new 3D sensor system for the 2019 iPhone. This sensor would work differently to the TrueDepth sensor system used for Face ID and would be used to add depth sensing features to the rear camera.</p>
<p>Adding depth data to the rear camera would allow for more advanced augmented reality applications. iPhone X and iPhone 8 Plus simulate depth by using a dual-camera system, and comparing the parallax of the images from the two lenses.</p>
