iPhone 5S will use fingerprint recognition technology

According to foreign media reports, after the Apple WWDC conference, the new iPhone has always been the most concerned topic. Is it called the iPhone 5S or the iPhone 6? What new technology will be installed?

It is understood that Apple acquired AuthenTec, a fingerprint sensor manufacturer, a year ago. However, no application of this technology has been implemented for a year. Recently, this fingerprint scanning technology has been applied to the screen of the iPhone 5S.

It is reported that this is AuthenTec's first technology patent assigned to Apple. According to the patent document description, this is a technology that can be placed inside the iPhone and can read fingerprints over longer distances (compared to other means).

In this regard, there are industry insiders that fingerprint identification area in the screen for the user is still very convenient, but also a good way to maintain the aesthetic design of the screen. In addition to the basic functions of fingerprint unlocking, Apple may also add this useful technology to more functions.
