One prominent trend in this market is the integration of 3D cameras in smartphones. Manufacturers incorporate depth cameras or Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensors in smartphones for their 3D imaging capabilities. These cameras provide depth information, enabling enhanced photography such as portrait mode, Augmented Reality (AR) applications, and facial recognition. The integration of 3D cameras into smartphones has made 3D technology accessible to many consumer groups and contributed to the development of augmented reality applications.
Smartphones can transfer virtual objects to the real world by capturing deep data, thus providing a wide variety of AR experiences such as interactive games, virtual equipment testing, interior design, and educational applications. Some smartphones with 3D cameras are capable of 3D scanning, allowing users to create digital models of objects or even the entire environment. This is useful in applications such as 3D printing, architectural visualization, and virtual content creation. In addition, the true depth of a 3D camera enables accurate measurements of objects, simplifying tasks such as measuring dimensions, room maps, and object identification.
