The old problem that has plagued Apple for many years is about to be solved! New iPhone technology cures ghosting problem

Foreign blogger yeux1122 broke the news that Apple is testing new anti-reflective optical coating technology, which is designed to reduce artifacts such as lens glare and ghosting to improve photo quality.

According to supply chain sources, Apple is considering introducing new atomic layer deposition (ALD) equipment into the iPhone camera lens manufacturing process.

Atomic layer deposition is a thin film deposition technology based on the continuous use of a gas phase chemical process, which is achieved by plating substances on the surface of a substrate layer by layer in the form of a single atomic film. ALD is a nanotechnology that enables nanometer-scale ultra-thin film deposition in a precisely controlled manner.

Specifically when it comes to camera lenses, the ALD process is mainly used to spray anti-reflective coatings, which helps reduce photographic artifacts. For example, when a strong light source such as the sun shines directly on the lens, it may cause stripes and halos in the captured images, and ALD technology can reduce these image distortions.

In addition, ALD applied materials can prevent environmental damage to the camera lens system without affecting the sensor's ability to effectively capture light.

The blog post pointed out that Apple plans to apply this process to the Pro series models of iPhone, which may be used in the iPhone 16 Pro series or next year’s iPhone 17 Seen on the Pro series.

Editor’s comment:

iPhone users have always been troubled by various glare and ghosting problems caused by light reflection. This new technology developed by Apple is expected to improve photo quality and reduce glare. and artifacts, giving users a better shooting experience.

If successfully applied to the iPhone, it will further consolidate Apple’s leading position in the field of smartphone photography.
