New technology is being developed to bring lower-cost 3D capabilities to smartphone and tablet cameras that would add new features to those devices.
, researchers at Stanford University are working on a system that could result in big improvements for smartphone cameras. With the changes, image sensors will be able to measure the distance between objects using light which will and allow for 3D imaging on smartphones. Doing this would require the use of lidar which stands for"light detection and ranging."
Lidar shoots out a laser light and times how long it takes to bounce off of a subject and return to the phone. It can be used to measure how fast an object is traveling, how far away it is, whether it is getting closer or farther away, and whether it will cross paths with another object. Lidar is already used on the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max to improve focusing in low-light, and for Night Mode.
Kabayama added that"Whether you’re a CrossFit junkie, weekend golfer, or avid Peloton enthusiast, the risk of physical injury is present and for many, a constant battle. Professional athletes have access to 3D technology that serves as a way to minimize performance-related injuries, but most of us everyday athletes do not."
