Apple Begins Work on Under Display Camera for iPhones: Report

Dec. 6, 2023

While Apple bought the Dynamic Island to even the non-pro iPhones with the iPhone 15 series, it is now reported that Apple is moving towards its aim of removing the Dynamic Island altogether in favor of an Under Display Camera on iPhones in the near future. A recent report states that Apple’s Korean suppliers have finally begun the development of under-display cameras (UDC) for the iPhones, paving the path for the first iPhone with an actual “all-screen” appearance.

As per the source atTheElec,LG Innotekis said to have begun preliminary development of the UPC (Under-Panel Camera), which eliminates the need for any hole on the display to accommodate the camera module.

How will Under Display Camera work on iPhones?

To compensate for the loss of light, which is said to be a problem with all the Under Panel Camera systems present currently, LG Innotek is reportedly working on a special lens system called a“freeform optic”multiple lens system. With a freeform lens system, the thickness of the peripheral lens can be controlled, reducing the distortion and increasing the light intensity ratio around the optical module to improve peripheral image quality.
