What role does LIDAR play in creating the Lock Screen depth effect in ios16?
Apologies if this has been asked. I was reviewing the transcript iOS 16 camera improvement as it relates to depth and depth maps. It’s my understanding that said models including LIDAR scanners play a big role in the resulting depth maps that are captured when taking an image. I know this is an improvement from models that rely on Truedepth cameras, but how does this play into the new Lock Screen setup? Is this effect created solely through software automations or does the presence of LIDAR and depth maps influence the results when it comes to creating the depth effect that pulls subjects to the front while allowing the background to remain in the foreground? Thanks so much in advanced!

HomeKit Secure Router and WPA3
Would someone be able to point me to Apple documentation elaborating on supported network security for HomeKit? I’m trying to get a definitive answer as to whether WPA3 is supported, as all HomeKit devices currently on my network show “no response” and fail to be adding if my Eero router is running with WPA3 Personal-Transitional mode enabled. I’m not sure if this is on Eero’s side as it doesn’t strictly disallow WPA3 in transitional mode, but any pairing requests with HomeKit devices will time out and not be able to be added to the network. With the exception of one Mysa Thermostat, this issue replicates along all devices. I’m not sure if this is something the manufacturer has to remedy in a future update, but the thermostats along with other devices will pair in HomeKit with the network in WPA3 mode, but as soon as they are removed and re-added to enable a HomeKit-managed credential they will not successfully pair. I have a camera that will later transition to the assigned credential but as far as I know, support by manufacturers for transitioning to the assigned credential without being removed and added again is also quite limited. Would appreciate any insight other than links to Reddit etc where it’s just speculation. I’ve managed to find some kind of Apple-issued documentation regarding a host of issues and questions I’ve had with the topic of HomeKit Secure Routers and WPA3 being the only exception.
