Apple has won a new patent that would allow for "synthetic group selfies," as mentioned by
The Verge. Should this software be successfully developed, users would have the ability to take group selfies while not physically present with anyone.
Based on the patent application, it appears a user could invite others to take part in a group selfie, and the individuals would be arranged accordingly into the frame. The patent also describes a window that appears on the invited users' screens that prompts them to participate in the group selfie photo.
