Pretty amazing... that apple allows access to the sensors, and provides an option to mirror the screen over HDMI! Given how touchy feely they were about openning the NFC stack, this is truly unbelievable.

True. I reckon a lot of "magic" is happening within software and other parts of the phone (e.g. naural engine), otherwise they would not be that willing to open it up and allow anyone to basically reverse-engineer the FaceID component. Sick tech overall!
