Apple investigates a way to make the iPhone a submersible camera — Apple World Today

Apple’s iPhone is water resistant; however, a newly graded patent (number 10,785,384) for “submersible electronic devices with imaging capabilities” show that the tech giant is investigating ways to make the smartwatch a decent underwater camera.

Not only does Apple want the iPhone to be waterproof, but it wants is camera to be able to overcome some of the limitations of underwater photography. In the patent filing, the company says that with aa device such as a submersible camera, ambient light color is influenced by the presence of the water surrounding the camera. If care is not taken, images captured with a submersible camera may have an undesired greenish color cast. Apple wants to overcome this.
