Sales of 3D Imaging smartphones are taking off. Advanced security and Augmented Reality (AR) solutions as well as enhanced imaging will be the main drivers. We predict that 3D Imaging, primarily driven by 3D facial authentication and new depth sensing/AR solutions, will see nearly healthy growth during the next six years and will become one of the key differentiators in higher-end smartphones.
This report examines the key technologies used for 3D imaging and is a valuable tool for device vendors, operators, component manufacturers, software developers, financial analysts and other stakeholders who want to identify or prioritize the most popular features penetrating billions of mobile devices worldwide.
