It does not go unnoticed that Apple releases a new version of the iPhone every year. This years latest model, the iPhone X, was boasting a new front and back camera that was supposed to surpass any of the previous models. This experiment looks at the front facing camera and the back facing camera of the iPhone X, and the iPhone 7s. These different models will be used to take a picture with the flash on while facing the Red Tide USB650 UV probe to collect an emission spectra. A picture will be taken with both the front facing camera and the back facing camera on each device. The different intensities and wavelengths of each flash can be measured and dissected to see if there is a correlation. By doing this, we can see if Apple has installed different kinds of flashes on its devices to improve picture quality.
