Apple has transferred the TouchID fingerprint reader feature, which it introduced with iPhone models, to iPad and MacBook models. The company now includes FaceID facial recognition technology on iPhone models. It looks like the FaceID feature will follow TouchID’s footsteps as well.
Mac models will host FaceID feature
It has been talked about for a long time that Apple’s facial recognition technology FaceID will come to Mac models. The latest patent, on the other hand, shows that the company has serious studies in this direction. In addition, it seems that the FaceID feature will not be limited to MacBook Pro models only.
The patent titled “Light Recognition Module for Identifying a Computer Device User” includes the details of the face recognition system. Although the resulting patent was focused on MacBook models in general, an iMac with FaceID also showed itself in Apple’s patent files.
Apple’s new facial recognition technology will come with a notch just like iPhone models. It seems that we will encounter the notches that entered our lives with the iPhone X and take on a different look with the iPhone 14 Pro from now on.
While the company presents its products with FaceID and notches that host the front camera, it also continues to work on under-screen FaceID and camera technology. In the future, we may see Apple’s products as devoid of a notch. Of course, this technology will first show itself in iPhone models.
Apple has been parting ways to adopt facial recognition in its products for a long time. The company, which relies more on the facial recognition system instead of fingerprint technology, will take another important step with its Mac models. So what do you think of the MacBook Pro and iMac with FaceID? You can share your views with us in the comments section.
