I thought the MMIO antenna array would have indicated a rough direction of the signal.
But perhaps that isn't accurate enough to be useful? Since the distance is accurate to a few cm and the iphone is moving, it can use it's own calculated position from the computer vision data to apply multilateration to multiple UWB distance samples over time.
