Nový iPhone 8 will get the function of advanced 3D scanning of the surrounding space. There is no doubt about that today and we have already informed you about it several times. However, there is still speculation about how exactly this will work. Apple will perform Basically, there are two potential options that he will be able to choose between Apple choose. Researchers from the Berclays Institute put together a theory about which way Apple against 3D scanning will go.

According to information from suppliers who prepare companion systems, Apple will use a kind of hybrid solution that uses elements from both available systems. The first system for 3D scanning is based on sensing the surroundings using the reflection of a mostly infrared beam. A signal is sent from the emitter and the sensor in the phone evaluates the reflections of this signal back. On the basis of this image, it then compiles a three-dimensional map that models the surrounding environment.
However, the second method is significantly more sophisticated. This method is called "Structured light" and works on the principle of displaying a specific grid in space. Its appearance is disturbed by the way the signal hits the objects in front of the sensor, which are scattered around. And it is this distortion of the original shape of the image that will help the processor calculate what the space in front of the camera sensor looks like.
Apple should, according to Barclays, combine both of these approaches into one and thus come up with a very functional technology that will be available both for complex face sensing and for detailed sensing of the surroundings, which will serve as a basic building block for the superstructure augmented reality. It looks like we have a lot to look forward to in September.
