Apple iPhone X: a trove of new tech sensors

Released in November 2017, the Apple iPhone X marks the 10th anniversary of the iPhoneproduct line. With this new generation come several new technologies that make the iPhoneX unique. Among the main new features we find are the screen design, OLED display,advanced true-depth camera, and optical array sensors (which enable facial ID). In addition tothese new features, the iPhone X has an impressive number of sensors, especially those thatare integrated into a small space at the top of the iPhone X screen. The sensor panel includesan infrared camera, flood illuminator, proximity sensor, and an ambient light sensor, alongwith a front camera, dot projector, speaker, and microphone. To achieve such a complexsolution, Apple successfully built and managed a strong network comprised of many players.

The iPhone X’s time of flight (ToF) proximity sensor and flood illuminator are good examplesof this network’s aptitude. Indeed, manufacturing these two devices required the work ofthree companies: STMicroelectronics, Philips, and Lumentum. In such a complex network,understanding each player’s patented features, IP position, and strategy was critical.

With a CAGR of 82% from 2016 - 2023 (according to Yole Développement), the consumermarket will drive the development of 3D imaging and sensing technologies. Today, the iPhoneX’s sensors are part of the first generation of imaging and sensing devices to be integrated in acellphone, but many will follow. In this report, Knowmade and its partner, System PlusConsulting, join forces and provide key information for understanding the roles, dynamics,and IP strategies of the players involved in the manufacturing of the iPhone X’s proximitysensor and flood illuminator.

Included in the same package, both components have been torn down and analyzed bySystem Plus Consulting, revealing their main characteristics. Based on this teardown analysis,Knowmade has identified the closest patents to these technologies and described the mainproprietary features.
