I doubt that the security level of the current fingerprint unlocking technology is not very high. Its working principle is simply to record a 2D fingerprint photo by using the refraction principle of light. Its advantages are high recognition speed and high recognition when hands sweat, but its disadvantages are also very obvious. It is easy to be deceived because of the influence information, which leads to insufficient overall security.
iPhone's Face ID technology is safer than the current fingerprint identification technology, because its technology not only includes the 2D plane information such as the height and width of your eyes, the vertical depth information such as the depth of your eye socket, the height of the bridge of the nose, the height of the eye socket, etc., but also adds gaze unlocking later to prevent fraudulent unlocking with the 3D printing head mold.
Recently, it was reported in the media that Apple obtained a brand-new patent for fingerprint identification under the screen. The main purpose of this patent is to embed an image sensor in the screen to read fingerprints. In addition, Apple also pointed out that other forms of biometric identification can also adopt the same method, including facial recognition.
Different from the current off-screen fingerprint identification technology, Apple should adopt a higher-level off-screen identification system. After all, if it really wanted to use the popular technologies such as ultrasound, Apple could have used it long ago.
So, I understand now, it's not that Apple is unwilling to add off-screen fingerprint unlocking technology to iPhone, but that Apple is pursuing a more secure unlocking technology. Apple is still the apple we know. It has always been committed to pursuing the concept of safety, high technology, quality and protecting users' privacy. Don't give the keyboard man a bias.
according to the supply chain, it has been confirmed that the iPhone 13 series will not have the off-screen fingerprint unlocking technology. We look forward to the addition of the iPhone 14, which will bring us more secure fingerprint unlocking technology.
iphone13 cancels the physical Home button and only supports digital password unlocking and face recognition unlocking:
the screen of iphone 13 adopts a 6.1-inch OLED screen; The height is about 146.7mm, the width is about 71.5mm and the thickness is about 7.65mm.. It is available in five colors: red, starlight, midnight, blue and pink. Adopt exclusive super porcelain crystal panel. It is equipped with a 12 million wide-angle lens+12 million super wide-angle lens rear camera system, and the front is a 12 million pixel camera. Equipped with A15 Bionic chip, it supports 5G.
