This could be interesting. A recently published Apple patent entitled “Vein matching for difficult biometric authentication cases” shows that Apple may be looking to improve its Face ID and other visual-based biometric systems by taking advantage of the unique and hard to copy patterns of veins that reside under the skin. If successful, this could resolve […]

Because you can’t argue with very cool, shiny things. Apple has recently been granted a patent for a variable internal illumination color system. It’s thought that such a system could be used in keyboards and other devices. Per Patently Apple: Apple’s granted patent covers devices, systems and methods that implement variable internal illumination of input […]
Intel on Thursday unveiled its first 10th-generation Core processors, codenamed “Ice Lake.” The processors, which were built using a 10-nanometer production process, are designed for thin-and-light notebooks, and could potentially power future entry-level 13-inch MacBook Pro and MacBook Air notebooks. Intel says the Ice Lake chips have increased board integration, allowing manufacturers like Apple to […]
The next-gen iPhone could retain Touch ID, albeit through a series of pinholes that would allow a fingerprint to be captured through the screen. Where the introduction of the iPhone X in 2017 eliminated the famous Home button in favor of an edge-to-edge display, Apple had to reconsider where to place its Touch ID feature, […]
If this came true, it could not only radically speed up Internet speeds to approximately 100 times their current speeds, but it would also qualify as dead sexy. A group of researchers have discovered a fiber optic breakthrough in which existing network speeds and efficiencies could be boosted via twisted light. The researchers explain it […]
