It goes without saying that one of the most important innovations that the Cupertino company has presented in recent years is precisely the Face ID. Despite the fact that it is now that Touch ID has become a world standard. It seems that Apple has not stopped its efforts to innovate in mobile security.
However, this makes us wonder how much precisely other companies have left to start offering similar technologies and not substitutes like Samsung's facial recognition, whose security is more than in question. Analysts have it very clear, manufacturers with Android are a long way from Apple's TrueDepth camera system.
This is how the illustrious (worth the redundancy) KGI analyst, Mr. Ming-Chi Kuo, who loves to drop us pearls from time to time, has said to this day that Android manufacturers are about two and a half years away. copying the TrueDepth functionality of the iPhone cameras. This system will begin offering demos on Android in about a year, at least that's what the analyst predicts. In the same way, he takes advantage of it to predict sales of between 40 and 50 million units for the iPhone X, an interesting fact to say the least.
However, it is hard for us to believe that having behind (and in front of) such powerful brands as Samsung and Huawei, which on the other hand are doing things quite well, they cannot really imitate this system or implement their own with the intention of offering a quality product to its users. Be that as it may, the sensations of Face ID and the TrueDepth system are quite good in all those people who have been testing it. throughout the last few days. It remains to be seen if it is as safe as Cupertino wants to make us think.
Is that Apple's facial recognition system is quite good, can be improved, like everything, but that does not mean that it is very accurate.
