Recently PatentlyApple was able to discover another Apple patent. This patent is based on a 3D avatar creating application that has surprisingly already been worked on by the Apple team for iPad integration. The patent shows the application currently running on an iPad it also displays that the app contains facial and upper body customization.
Because the patent is out in such a detailed form there is probably a reason Apple has this patent. At this time we aren’t sure why they would need an avatar creating app but, we believe that this could be part of a further upgrade with iOS’s GameCenter. As many of the consoles and portable gaming devices already have, avatars seem like something that would be a great addition to GameCenter. Well, that is if they put even more socializing features into the popular default gaming application.
