Face ID
Apple's facial recognition technology, used for device unlocking and identity verification, with biometric data stored in the Secure Enclave.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Full Face ID projects tens of thousands of invisible light dots to build a facial depth map, can work in complete darkness, and resists photo attacks.
HomeView's facial recognition is not full Face ID; it relies only on a single 12-megapixel Center Stage camera, has no infrared or depth sensor, and its recognition performance in low-light environments is questionable.
When a payment amount exceeds the limit, Fizzl sends an approval request to the user's phone, supporting Face ID, push notifications, or Telegram confirmation.
iPhone users can trigger Emergency SOS mode by pressing the side button five times in succession, which also temporarily disables Face ID.
Even if the main operating system is compromised, the private keys in the Secure Enclave cannot be extracted, and Face ID biometric data and device keys are all stored there.
Dynamic Island wraps the pill-shaped cutout for the front camera and Face ID sensors in a software-driven black capsule that can dynamically expand and contract to display content such as music, navigation, timers, and incoming calls in real time.
The notch on Mac does not contain a Face ID sensor array.
The MacBook Pro notch design debuted in 2021, with Apple integrating the Face ID sensor array and front camera into a cutout at the top of the screen.
