I’m interested to see what depth of field can be replicated with lenses so close together. 3d (spatial) videos is the one feature I would have bought a new phone for, but given it is not available day one I’m a bit skeptical that an unproven lense set up will replicate well to an unproven vr set up.

I want to see a scanner app that nails flattening out book pages. The spatial data is needed to triangulate depth accurately.

That should be possible already with the LIDAR, I think.

I think the idea here was that depth = shadow.
