There is no real product announcement or clear indication about what to expect. But on images you can see a Lidar system mounted on the hot shoe.

It’s launching late August in Indiegogo. You find the currently available Nanomorph lenses on this BHphoto page.
Sony released the new 1.01 firmware: sony.com/electronics/support/e-mount-body-ilce-6000-series/ilce-6700/software/00298441
