Since when Apple has made it clear that it is interested in augmented reality, there have been conflicting reports about what form the feature will actually take and how it will debut. A new report from Bloombergu tries to shed light on both questions.
The message is already reflected in the earlier ones and says that Apple has a large number of engineers working on augmented reality and that we will see it for the first time in the iPhone. “Hundreds of engineers are now working on this, including some engineers who are part of the iPhone camera team. All of them are reportedly working on augmented reality for iPhone. "

The report describes some specific functions that Apple he explores, even if he doesn't go into great detail. “One of the functions that Apple is exploring is the ability to take a photo and then change the depth of field of the image or the depth of certain objects in the photo. It could also be possible to separate an object in the image, such as a person's head, and be able to tilt it 180 degrees. A different path of development would be to place virtual effects and objects in the way we know, for example, with Snapchatat."
Bloomberg also believes that Apple he intends to later create glasses for augmented reality. This even despite the failure of Google, which wanted to turn its Google Glass into a consumer product. This idea was first recorded according to the same source, as early as last November, indicating that Apple cooperates with the company CarZeiss.
