News & Reviews:   Face ID

Apple's Face ID is probably already doing a good job making sure that their products' users are protected, and it's hard for us to think of which part of the system can be improved. However, it looks like the tech giant has figured it out, as a patent filed by them revealed that the Face ID would be able to map users' veins in the future.

Earlier, we have come across rumours saying that Apple would reveal the first batch of MacBooks that come with ARM-based processors at the upcoming WWDC event. Other than laptops, iMac with a new design is expected to be announced at the event as well. Besides the new design, Apple's desktop computer will also get a technology that is featured on iPhones and iPads for quite some time, and it's the Face ID.

If you're an Apple iPhone user, you would find unlocking your iPhone to be a hassle because of the face mask. Thankfully, the company is working on that and according to reports, the new iOS 13.5 beta will focus on the Face ID as well as "detecting" COVID-19 exposure for the outbreak period. By the way, there's also a new iOS 13.4.1 update patch but we will get to that later. 

Countries around the world might be going into restrictions, but the march of technology continues. Recently, new patent filings from Apple were found, detailing the possible implementation of the Face ID technology for devices other than the iPhone. Just like how Microsoft uses Windows Hello with Windows PCs, Apple will be using Face ID for its computers.

The face mask is now essential to everybody due to the Coronavirus outbreak. This has made it hard to unlock our phones using Apple or Android face ID by removing the mask every time. To solve that,  a company has decided to solve this issue by developing N95 masks that can unlock your phones!

Today is the first day of 2020 and we’ve received really good news about Apple’s future. There is evidence claiming that the iPhones will be getting a makeover and this time, it is not about new colours or new camera design. The company has filed a patent of an iPhone without the notch and it looks promising.

Facial recognition is deemed to be one of the secure ways to carry out identity verification. These days, many security checkpoints, airports, and even smartphones have started leaning toward the technology for identification. However, is the technology that reliable? Researchers at Krenon, an AI company, have announced they were able to trick some of the facial recognition systems with a 3D mask they made.
