I just tried using Animojis with the TrueDepth camera covered. After a second the frame rate drops significantly (to roughly 10 fps) and the character's eyes glitch out. I'm convinced Animojis are doing something with the TrueDepth hardware. It still tracks head movement with just the camera, but its significantly slower and more error prone.
- pwinnski 9y agoInitials reports suggested Animoji worked with the TruDepth camera covered, but detailed reports of subsequent experimentation have revealed that TruDepth is required at intervals, just not 100% of the time.
- Double_a_92 9y ago> I'm convinced Animojis are doing something with the TrueDepth hardware Weren't they specially created to make use of that 3D cam?
- valine 9y agoYes, but the parent comment was arguing that Animojis are a marketing gimmick, suggesting they could be enabled on other phones without the depth sensing hardware. I was sharing my experience as a counterpoint.
