Apple developing 3D camera with LG for iPhone 8, claims report
The 3D camera was initially used in LG Optimus 3D
A few days back, we had reported about Apple bringing in Dual Image Optical Stabilization for the iPhone 8. Now new information has surfaced again regarding the camera. According to a report in The Korea Economic Daily, Apple is working with LG Innotek to develop a smartphone camera module that will enable 3D photography. The reports states that LG Innotek’s 3D dual rear camera module could be used in Apple’s new products starting as early as latter half of 2017.
The site stated, “Apple is now studying how to apply its 3D camera technology into LG’s Innotek’s smartphone’s camera. Since LG Innotek also has its own 3D camera and related technologies, such joint efforts will likely to bear fruit sometime within next year.”
The year 2017 is important for Apple as it marks the tenth anniversary of the iPhone and it is expected that Apple will be making some radical changes and basic overhaul to the entire design and structure.
