Yes, on the bottom was the only place to place the IR camera. The Joy-Con info graphic says the camera can detect shapes, movement and distance. Maybe it can use that information to help keep the Joy-Cons oriented. Its just a theory, a Switch theory.

You could also put it at the side:

And if it had the biometric sensor it would be much easier to read a pulse while holding the thing.

 

But when you are holding the Joy-Cons to play ARMS the camera would be covered up on the side. I think the bottom was the only place they could put it.
