do what ID: Ένα από τα πιο ενδιαφέροντα χαρακτηριστικά του iPhone X της apple is how you unlock it. New mode Face ID χρησιμοποιεί την camera Its TrueDepth iPhone to view and analyze more of 30.000 invisible dots to create a depth map of your face, which is then read by an infrared camera to finally unlock your phone.
Even in the dark. Even when you leave a beard.
Smartphones come along with other gadgets in our digital life, and anything that can improve security is welcome. We should mention that there are still people who do not use a password to lock their phones. Apple, however, promises that using face recognition will be safer than fingerprinting.
"The chance that a random person could look at your iPhone X and unlock it using your ID is about 1.000.000 (compared to 1 in 50.000 for Touch ID)," says Apple.
Its use technology ανησύχησε μερικούς, αλλά μερικές από τις ανησυχίες τους για την ασφάλεια είναι ίσως λίγο υπερβολικές: στην περίπτωση του συστήματος control ταυτότητας του iPhone X δεν υπάρχει κάποια ενιαία βάση δεδομένων για να υποκλέψουν οι hackers γιατί τα βιομετρικά δεδομένα αποθηκεύονται, και κρυπτογραφούνται στην ίδια την device.
However, there are still some questions:
For a smartphone we can argue that a fingerprint is actually the easiest password replacement: it's less controversial than using your face and maybe even faster.
Face recognition on smartphones will be delayed. First you have to grab the device before you look at it. So unlocking with a fingerprint reader on the back (or side) makes it very easy to unlock the phone by pulling it out of your pocket or taking it off the desk.
Finger or face?
Using a fingerprint, once I look at the phone is already unlocked: facial recognition seems to be a step behind it, because I have to look at the phone before it opens.
Of course, these are criticisms of a particular app that Apple has used, but it can get bigger. The way in which face recognition is used can become a standardized way of identifying in general, not only when we unlock our smartphones.
If we start using facial recognition in a controlled scenario, such as unlocking our phones, we encourage the use of technologyς και αλλού, όπου μπορεί να έχουμε μικρότερο έλεγχο.
It's not hard to imagine how facial recognition technology along with extensive surveillance systems installed in most major cities will kill anonymity.
This may be good and maybe not, but it is the kind of change that goes unnoticed into our society when we need to talk more about it protecting our privacy.
And OK, state surveillance yes exists and will exist. What will happen when the same technology, another kind of Face ID, is used in the Super Markets, always for the convenience of the customer…
