Apple patent sketches 3D avatar capture by stitching body scans over time
ColbyHawker · x · 2026-07-27
Apple has filed a patent for a method that uses a device’s cameras to capture different parts of a person’s body at different times, then gradually reconstruct a complete 3D avatar.
- The idea is to piece together a full avatar from partial captures rather than requiring one perfect scan.
- The post frames it as a neat concept, but it remains a patent, not a shipped feature.
