A consumer stereo camera in a significant portion of the populations pocket is a big deal imo. Going to make the volume of VR content much higher.

- seydor 3y agoa 360 camera , or at least the ability to take 360 photos easily would make a bigger difference
- BudaDude 3y ago180 camera makes more sense at this stage. 360-degree cameras on a phone would be weird when recording with the phone in hand. It would be better on a tripod, but I think Apple is trying not to complicate it unless professionals want it.
- ffitch 3y agoFrom what I gather the distance between the left and right lens will be less than an inch. Technically it’s still stereo, but don’t get your hopes high.
- tracerbulletx 3y agoThey didn't say much about it but hopefully they can infer enough to do a good job. You can already do mildly ok fake depth maps from a single image. I also would like to know if this is going to be somehow locked down to Apple Vision or a format we could use in a Quest3 or other VR headset.
- bpye 3y agoThey have depth with the LIDAR sensor as well - so I wonder if that enables them to pull of some trick to make it more convincing.
- tbenst 3y agoIt’s more about the difference in magnitude of the lenses. This also gives you depth information when combined.
