I don't see apple pulling this off in a way that would fit with their high usability standards just yet.
Personally i could see it in the mac pro or iphone first.
But (whilst i think its awesome tech) i just have a feeling it is a little too gimmicky for the iphone any time soon.
- potatolicious 15y agoIt's a little annoying that the press flies off the handle about every patent Apple files. We've seen this for years - Apple files tons of patents that never make it into a shipping product. To extrapolate from "Apple patents X" into "Apple plans to ship X" is stupid. It makes me wonder if Apple purposely patents things it doesn't plan to ship to: - increase its patent portfolio - to inject noise and distract from patents it does plan to ship
- technoslut 15y agoI think Apple patents everything they can find to avoid lawsuits. The patents they've actually used in a product are the ones the filed against Android manufacturers. It's hard to take any of the patents seriously. Usually the new tech that Apple introduces are patents filed very close to when the product is publicly released so no one is aware of the feature. Even when they show new features that come from these patents it's never quite the same as what those illustrations show.
