It seems like this is not actually about the trackpad but about the software of of how it is handled. I thought there was new hardware, but it seems like it is making better use of the multi touch trackpads that have been on their laptops f

I agree with some of this on some level, but this article is a big list of extremely abstract concepts that it doesn't explain how to achieve. It definitely doesn't explain how to achieve them in a practical way in general program

Those are secondary rays, which are separate from the primary rays from a camera. Secondary rays from reflective or transmissive effects are not considered visibility from the camera. This distinction was very important in hybrid renderers

It is only new to the iPad - you can look at intel's realsense and microsoft's kinect to check out depth cameras in use for many years already. The integration is what will make it special. We will have to see what the noise is
