Will Apple's FCPX Z-Depth Patent Revolutionize the Industry?

Now here's an interesting move by Apple. I'm curious to see where it might lead and when/if it'll show up in FCP X. I've heard rumors of video application of this tech for a while. As FCP X/Motion just added full 3D text and controls this could be the start of an interesting road for FCP X development. I don't expect this to show up anytime soon, we need cameras that can actually record it first. Affects cinematographers as much as post production:

We'll see how this progresses, this other article makes it seem likely we'll see it in iPhones/iPads which would necessitate it being in FCP X if video got those capabilities. Though from this article it seems more likely to show up in the new Photos app: Apple Z-Space Patent

The patent application has nothing to do with FCPX. The original article thought the GUI in the application was FCPX, it obviously isn't

Yes, I was about to quote the article stating that "in the image it is clearly FCPX" or something like that, and the image looks nothing like FCPX. But, I'm sure this is something they'll build into an iPhone some day.
