Apple has submitted a patent with USPTO for less display camera sensors for use in biometric face authentication systems such as touch ID and faceID for the iPhone.
On the current iPhone, the image sensor is placed at the level, close to the display, which is a conventional method but the future iPhone can have a camera sensor under the screen.
So, it is very possible that Apple can eliminate with notches with the iPhone 14 or a newer version, providing a complete display of domination on the front of the iPhone.
The camera sensor under the screen can be used for faceid and the TouchID both.
Apple said in the patent that the extra area taken by the camera sensor in the conventional method seized the actual display area of space and leads to unwanted improvements in the real size of the bezel that limits the appearance and also does not cause an increase in size and undesirable volume of housing in electronic devices.
Abstract for the patent read: “System and method for screen imaging through.
The screen includes imaging openings defined through opaque support.
Optical imaging arrays are harmonized with the aperture.
Above the aperture, the display is set and / or configured for increased optical transmission.
For example, an area From the view above, or adjacent to, imaging openings can be formed with lower pixel density than other areas of the display, thus increasing inter-pixel distances (for example, tones) and increasing areas where light can cross the display to reach an optic imaging array Of course.
“
Apple can add fingerprint scanners that are lacking in display and id face on the iPhone
