New Apple iPad Pro with LIDAR scanning support
www.zdnet.com/article/apples-new-ipad-pro-arrives-with-updated-chip-and-lidar-scanner-for-ar-apps/
The LiDAR scanner — a technology better known in self-driving cars — measures the distance to surrounding objects up to 5 meters away. New depth frameworks in iPadOS combine depth points measured by the LiDAR scanner, data from both cameras and motion sensors, and is enhanced by computer vision algorithms on the A12Z Bionic for a more detailed map of a scene. The aim is to boost the quality of AR experience created on the iPad Pro.
Apple said existing ARKit apps will automatically get instant AR placement, improved motion capture and people occlusion.
The tablet will have a 10-hour battery life, a 12MP Wide camera which can capture 4K video, and a 10MP Ultra Wide camera that zooms out two times to capture a much wider field of view.
Apps like DoubleTake by FiLMiC Pro, available next month, leverage the pro cameras and studio-quality mics to turn iPad Pro into a mobile video production studio.6
With iPadOS 13.4, Apple brings trackpad support to iPad, giving customers an all-new way to interact with their iPad.
