iPhones can already be used for underwater photography but the new generations will have IP68 certifications. So the upcoming Apple mobiles will be able to sink into the water without the risk of any harm.
IP68 certification is one of the steps that the company from Cupertino is considering to improve the quality of its photos iPhone when he swims, and it shows in a recent patent application.
Technically, what Apple wants to do is equip the iPhone with a team of sensors that will be responsible for determining the correct settings for taking better underwater photos. According to CultOfMac, the iPhone's sensors could measure the amount of light in the water, color changes, depth, pressure and distance from the subject.
In other words, if you want to take a photo of a fish, for example, the iPhone will be able to correctly determine the settings needed for the photo, all with base an algorithm that collects information from all these sensors.
Of course we should mention that, as with any patent, the above news does not mean that the company is preparing for mass production. At least it gives us a look at Apple's vision of the future features of the iPhone's camera.
