Android handset brand manufacturers camp Huawei, Oppo, millet and so on for the continuous pursuit of growth, to close the gap with Apple, next year to reload, supply chain industry expectations, the new machine will continue to join the development of 3D sensing function, 3D sensing related supply chain manufacturers such as Big Li Light, Shun Yu Optics, Obi, Wonders photoelectric and so on each seek breakthroughs, scrambling card position this wave 3D sensing business opportunities. Despite competing bids for 2018-year-old handset brand new product orders, due to Daliguang in technology, patents, capacity, design and other fields to maintain the lead, coupled with the large vertical light in the 3D sensing receiver, the transmitter lens module has a layout, with next year 3D sensing business continued to ferment, Daliguang is the Apple smartphone iphone lens main supplier, and takes all the Android handset brand industry to order, will continue to strengthen the relationship with existing customers, the big light is expected to be long-term 3D sensing opportunity train. Android mobile phone brand camp and Apple, in the integration of upstream and downstream, the algorithm is relatively lack of advantages, the respective betting, making the supply chain manufacturers to join hands to crack the Apple offensive, 3D-sensing solutions have the opportunity to flee in this situation, Qualcomm (QUALCOMM), wonders photoelectric, Cooperative 3D Sensing solution (total solution) Mainland mobile phone brand industry oppo, Millet Affirmation, is expected to inject the relevant supply chain manufacturers next year to reap the momentum of growth, but also help the non-Apple camp in 3D sense to catch up. Corresponding to the mainland mobile phone brand customer attempts to counter Apple, in the next year intends to launch a 3D sensing function of the new machine to encroach on the market map, Shun-yu optical structured 3D Sensing solution production time has been concerned about the industry may fall in the 3rd quarter of 2018. 2016 won the ' Rich Dad ' MediaTek strategic stake in the OBI also actively prepared for the mainland, Obi for self-developed 3D sensors, algorithms, control chip, structural light program 3D lens manufacturers, for the next year to obtain the mainland mobile phone brand manufacturers orders also embrace expectations. Apple launched a new generation of iphone X in September 2017, the main artificial intelligence (AI) chip and face-recognition facial ID unlock function, showing the apple in the soft, hardware combination of the Great Leap Forward, Apple also take this big and Android camp brand manufacturers distance. Because Apple has the advantage of soft, hardware integration, can oneself get through the supply chain upstream and downstream, because the truedepth camera for face recognition function in the key, including infrared lenses, floodlight, proximity sensors, ambient photometric sensors, 7 million-element lens, mapping point projector, However, at this stage, the good rate of supply chain manufacturers is still a considerable challenge. The iphone x is equipped with a 3D sensing function, when the user will face the iphone x lens, touch the sensor, the system will be identified, 2D images can not be identified by the identification of the human face, the mapping point of the projector will be launched, the projection of about 30,000 of the structure light ( Structured light) infrared light points on the user's face. It is worth mentioning that the structure of light can help mobile phone lenses accurately grasp portrait contour, and then by infrared lens receiving infrared reflection to obtain information, transmission to the mobile phone system, through the built-in dual-core neural network engine (neural Engine) chip A11 processor to calculate, determine whether the face is the user himself. In response to the AR craze, Apple may add hardware components to the Truedepth camera feature in the next iphone camera lens module in 2018.
