I quoted on this topic as follows:
http://www.techradar.com/news/the-iphone-8-could-come-with-a-rear-facing-3d-laser-to-support-ar-app
'Fast Company has reported that the iPhone (either the upcoming models or the 2018 ones) will use a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (or VCSEL) system, as evidence mounts that Apple has procured VCSEL components from various sources.
The VCSEL system would improve the iPhone camera’s autofocus capabilities and depth perception for better augmented reality experience...'
The quote clearly say 'from various suppliers'
If you can list who they are from other quotable sources then please do, I for one would be most grateful, but if as I suspect you cannot, then POET remains a possible source until proved otherwise.
