And the FaceID setup for the front-facing camera is used to create those animated memojis that match your face. If you add it to a laptop, it could actually map the background environment and do some really fancy processing for video calls. Or even improve audio based on the room shape it sees. https://www.apple.com/in/newsroom/2020/03/apple-unveils-new-ipad-pro-with-lidar-scanner-and-trackpad-support-in-ipados/ https://www.apple.com/in/newsroom/2020/03/apple-unveils-new-...
