Obviously -- that is not my question though. I was curious if that data is exposed via API or within the image for front camera as well, so a third party app can do it.
most kyc apps have you record live video, i'm assuming they can then infer those depth maps from the video source regardless of your phone capabilities?
I bet most of them are just dumb and video based as they work on both Android and iOS.
