Apple patents new enhancements to the camera and headphone jack for the next iPhone, iPod and Mac!


Apple continues to Depositor patents tirelessly and often invent and reinvent what has been published previously. The patents show that there are now two, the first is the camera for (probably) improve on future models.


The company is seriously committed to the study and development of all technologies tied to the camera. It 's so that we come to creating a unit that includes a Flash with advanced automated features that can adjust the light intensity depending on the situation.
Thanks to the sensors, the iPhone will be able to get a complete picture of the scene that we are to capture and automatically be able to adjust the flash settings for telephoto or wide angle for those macros.

All this system, besides being introduced on iPhone, may also be added to Macs, but now they are all still without a flash that will probably be useful when added to FaceTime iChat for video calls in the evening from your computer.

The second patent however, concerns a new headphone jack built using the "pogo pins" can provide a conductive contact, reducing the size so that they can be made smaller and smaller devices. IPods are in fact increasingly reduced in size and the same thing happened with the iPhone 4, 23% thinner than its predecessor.
