The possibility that Apple update the terminal family iPhone with a device that can capture and play back content in three dimensions without accessories additional is being a constant in the rumor mill about the next phone Californian firm. Of course, there has been no official statement on the matter, although the latest news from Cupertino invites us to rescue the speculations around the possible autostereoscopy on the iPhone 5.
To do this, simply refer to one of the latest job offers that the American manufacturer has published in the Jobs at Apple. According to this, the firm would be looking for software engineers for the native platform of the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, iOS. The idea is to find specialists in computerized imaging and 3D geometry. In principle, it would not have to be a job offer dedicated to experts in developing environments for terminals prepared for viewing and recording content in three dimensions.
However, before a couple of details of the offer, doubts arise that invite us to think about an iPhone 5 3D. To begin with, applicants for the position should consider entering a work group oriented to the investigation of what they call "multi-view stereo", and furthermore, it is made clear that those who apply for the position must operate in 3D environments, both on reproduction surfaces such as cameras of this type. Given these signs, as we say, the arrival of autostereoscopy to the new iPhone could be an imminent reality.
To date, we only know of three mobiles that integrate 3D functions and that have been made available to the world market "" in Japan there are several models from Sharp and other manufacturers that are already betting on this technology "". We are talking about the HTC Evo 3D, LG Optimus 3D and LG Optimus 3D Max ”” or LG Optimus 3D Cube, according to the South Korean market ””. It is expected that in the coming months, the Taiwanese HTC will launch an improved reissue of the Evo 3D, although at the moment there is no official notification about it.
It had even been said that the next flagship Samsung mobile, the Samsung Galaxy S3, would integrate 3D functions in the style of the aforementioned terminals. However, this detail has not been confirmed by the company "" yes that some progress has been made small features of which will be flagship mobile catalog of firm "". Even the most reliable rumors that have been had of the future Samsung Galaxy S3 rule out the presence of this feature in the terminal. In spite of everything, it will take us a short time to find out: in a couple of weeks ”” specifically, on May 3 ”” the device will be officially presented.
To date, it has not yet been clear when the iPhone 5 would be released. Last year, the iPhone 4S arrived in October, while previous editions were present during the annual meeting of developers that Apple holds in the run-up to summer. On this occasion, it has not been specified when the new device would be shown, and in fact there are rumors that pull on both sides of the line, without the doubt being cleared.
