Apple Announces a safer Face Recognition Technology
We have seen Smartphone being
opened with passwords, textures, as well as voice, but now we are soon going to
see the 3D face recognition technology. Thanks to Apple and its continuous
innovation that our Smartphone will be more secure than ever before.
Earlier there were so many
complaints about security breach, but all these issues are going to take a back
seat with this new release. The system is going to allow the users to log in and
authenticate apps to secure the launches.
The company is in pace with its
eye scanning features and the sensor is said to be powered by a 3D sensor.
Accuracy and sensor's speed is going to be the focal point of the system. Plus,
you don’t even get to worry about remembering the passwords and patterns.
The system is going to scan your
face and then unlock the iPhone within a few hundred milliseconds. The spokesperson claims that the feature is
going to work fine even with the device lying flat on the table. So, you don’t
have to take it all the way to your face to grab the snap. Some say that the intent for this new
technology is to replace the Touch ID fingerprint, but there are even those who
decline the fact.
Apple introduced the touch phone in 2013 with the iPhone 5s and it made
locking and unlocking the phone easier.
The 5s allowed users in payment gateway authentication and security was
taken to the next level.
However, Apple is not the first company to use
this forms of biometric authentication. Even Samsung came up with this
technology, in the form of the iris scanners, which users bring in use while
unlocking the phone and making the payments. However, Samsung has reviewed its
sensor badly as people could trick it with photo copies of the person’s eye.
People thought of it as a threat
to security more than a feature that made their Smartphone safer. The 3D
sensor, however, is being worked upon to get an idea of the mistakes that
Samsung came up with. hoping that there won’t be any 2D
photo fraud anymore and we would be left with a secure access to your Smartphone’s.
