iPhone X and Your FaceData
Yeah, FaceData is a thing now. Today Apple released the iPhone X.
There are lots of future facing features and hardware updates.
While the edge to edge screen looks great, I’m more excied about the bigger story. The iPhone X points to the future of where technology is going.
Apple uses an array of new sensors, cameras side-by-side with machine learning and neural networks tech. Apples then hides all this new technology behind great user experience.
(See Apple live event recap for yourself here.)
iPhone X
New Hardware Sensors x Machine Learning = FaceData
A whole new suite of sensors was added to the front of the phone along with new chips focused on machine learning which creates a new kind of data can be used FaceData.
New Hardware and ML Software = New Features
- FaceID Unlock– Use your face and attention to unlock the iPhone X.
- ApplePay — Use your face to pay.
- Animoji — Animated emoji controlled with your face.
- Third Party Apps (Yes! This opens the door to creativity.)
Pointing to a Future That’s Here
Whether or not you are going to get an iPhone X the release opens the gates for the massive exposure to cutting edge tech around machine learning, augmented reality and hardware sensors that have been talked a lot about in technology community.
Our world continues to look a lot like sci-fi, and I’m excited to see what people invent, break and hack with the new set of tools housed in the iPhoneX.
