We've been betting that the Note 8 may have a dual camera setup based on Samsung's investments in Core Photonics, and some more hints that we've already analyzed. Last week, when a couple of leaked schematics allegedly depicted a possible Note 8 design, there was no show or mention for what will be on the back of the device, but today a patent filing by Samsung in Korea sheds some light on the eventual dual camera module that Samsung is working on. 
It depicts two sensor/lens combos, housed in a thin chassis, and says this can be used for collecting more photons to improve low-light performance, for 3D-mapping, and distance measurements. We ran the patent PDF you can download below through Google Translate, and there is a lot of talk about magnets, axis and lens alignments, so we might optical stabilization on those sensors, and perhaps even some sort of zooming solution.
