US Patent and Trademark has published the company's new patent application Apple, which describes a unique encapsulation of a fingerprint sensor in a protective layer. New patent Applu will allow you to create a fingerprint sensor, which can be covered with a thin layer of protective cover or film that protects the sensor but does not limit its effectiveness. The patent describes a way in which Apple can encapsulate the fingerprint sensor itself in a protective material that covers the sensors themselves, which can recognize the user's finger based on an electric current.
if Apple used this patent in iPhone, this would mean that it could embed the sensor directly into the body of the phone and cover it with a thin layer of material, making the sensor completely invisible and at the same time protected against scratches or other damage. Furthermore, according to the patent, it is also possible to highlight the sensor with light, so that a diode appears on the surface of the device, indicating where the user should place their finger. The company could thus use the fingerprint sensor not only in iPhone, but also, for example, in the keyboard or mouse Magic MouseIf you are interested in the technical solution of the entire patent, please see right here.

I don't want it, it's useless, I'd rather let them have it nfc for payments, in addition ios 7 has better anti-theft protection and better security measures
What for? NFC, my ATM card can also do this and I also carry it with me all the time, so ... on the other hand, a useful thing for users, I won't have to keep typing the password when downloading an application or similar. actions in iOSe
think.different:
I am against someone storing and archiving my fingerprints, I do not agree with this and consider it an interference with my personal freedom
you know that on request apple he can give all our data to the FBI, NSA and the like
Amnart: But if you don't want it, then products Apple do not use. It is your free choice that no one can deny you. ;)
Amnart, you never go to the state, the immigration office pats you down after your arrival and you leave your fingerprints as a welcome gift.

I know, although I would like to go there, I know that this is one of the reasons why I won't go
Amnart and what are you afraid of?? if you haven't committed any crime, it can be stolen from you, whether they have your fingerprints or not. or why does it bother you so much?
in my opinion, it can also be quite a useful thing. imagine they steal from you iphone,or you will lose it. and the person in question who "comes across" it also owns it iphone, so it is very easy to find out the identity of who wanted to unlock it. you simply are iphone you can block it via icloud and Fridaychatthey immediately have an eľa or a "lucky person" not only according to their position, but also according to their imprint. I think it's a great thing.
amnart…… :D
And as the icing on the cake, in the Czech Republic it is mandatory to provide fingerprints when renewing/receiving a new passport. I don't know how it is in Slovakia, but I think you will emigrate Amnarte, because I believe that it will be different.siri even in the citizens. Change your opinion, or you will emigrate for freedom ;)
As soon as those hit renders with a visible sensor were circulating here (and they are still circulating) I wrote that Apple he will definitely hide the sensor and everything will be as before.
I also don't understand why NFC I have always considered this unnecessary for payments. On the other hand, unlocking by placing your finger on the screen is very simple and yet technically complex.
Equipment AppThey will be some of the safest, which will be a reason to use them.
Marek: because Amnart is such a star that he has to guard his imprint... :D
