I’d love to see Face ID on a Mac next.
- nostromo 6y agoYes. And automatically log in to the right user account on shared Macs.
- PascLeRasc 6y agoIn the keynote they mentioned that Touch ID would switch user profiles, so I think this is coming too.
- adrr 6y agoThey could even use it for the screen saver/auto lock functionality so the computer doesn’t lock because I am staring at code for 5 minutes.
- MikeCapone 6y agoHopefully it'll be on the larger model. I think they may segment it as "iMac Pro"
- O_o_O_o_0 6y agoeh FaceID is more like a software feature rather than hardware, even a basic windows laptop these days have it
- mholm 5y agoThey have facial recognition, but Face ID involves a complicated array of sensors and an IR projector to create a 3D mapping of your face. Iirc, the module is fairly expensive to produce which is why we aren’t seeing it on more products.
