Apple began developing a new unlock method
As everyone knows, Apple is famous for not being afraid to say goodbye to old trends and to follow new trends. So, the usual ID scanner was replaced by a Face ID on the IPhone X. Now the moment has come when manufacturers polls place the fingerprint scanner under the smartphone screen. And now it became known that Apple is preparing something much cooler, the company received a patent for the use of acoustic imaging for scanning on the surface in high resolution. The document says that this technology can be used to convert mechanical energy into electrical signals and vice versa. According to this, the thumb pattern will turn into an electrical signal. But that's not all, the document also says that not only a finger is necessary for scanning, but also a palm, cheek, and even an ear. This technology will not only unlock the device, but also collect data about the owner, heart rate, respiration and so on. Thus, even when answering an incoming call, will be able to determine the owner and protect personal data. The patent was filed back in 2016, and it was registered just now, perhaps the company will find application in future IPhone models.
