In the run-up to the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2019, which will take place from February 25th to 29th in Barcelona, LG has published new information about its smartphone G8 ThinkQ. The smartphone, which was presented to the public for the first time at the trade fair, will have an additional Time-of-Flight camera (ToF) in addition to the normal front camera.
ToF cameras use infrared light pulses to determine distances to objects. This makes them particularly reliable for face unlocking, as they offer a higher level of security than normal smartphone cameras. Thanks to the infrared light pulses, ToF cameras can also be used in poor lighting conditions.

LG will therefore use the camera to unlock the smartphone similar to Apple’s Face ID. The camera will also be used for AR and VR applications. However, LG has not yet published application scenarios for the G8 ThinkQ.
