Hi All,

Here comes Apple - in a big way - in 3D scanning and modeling tech for its next iPhone.

AppleInsider (21 Feb 2017) 'iPhone 8' to include game changing 3D facial recognition tech in FaceTime camera

"Apple is expected to include a customized 1.4-megapixel image sensor in the infrared receiving model that will detect changes in light signals. The system is believed to use technology that Apple acquired from its $345 million purchase of PrimeSense back in 2013," according to AppleInsider Tuesday (21 February 2017).

"Combined with facial recognition technology from Apple's acquisition of augmented reality firm Metaio in 2015, Apple's system is expected to be far beyond anything currently available on the market," the article says.

Best,

Dan

I don't think it will replace Matterport camera. I don't expect the range and fidelity of this to match Matterport camera for now.

This is actually very exciting news for Matterport Pros.

The more people that use/play with scanning, the more businesses will seek out Pro scanning solutions.
