Amaya Toman I kēia mau lā, ʻo iPhones - me ka ʻokoʻa o ka iPhone SE 2020 - ke kaena nei i ka hana Face ID. Akā ʻaʻole ia i lōʻihi loa i ka wā i hoʻolako ʻia ai nā kelepona paʻa lima o Apple me kahi pihi papapihi, kahi i hūnā ʻia ai kahi mea ʻike manamana lima me ka mea i kapa ʻia ʻo Touch ID. I kēia lā o kā mākou Apple History series, e hoʻomanaʻo mākou i ka lā i kau ai ʻo Apple i ke kumu no Touch ID ma o ka loaʻa ʻana iā AuthenTec.
Hiki paha hoihoi oe
ʻO ke kūʻai ʻana o AuthenTec i Iulai 2012 ua lilo ʻo Apple i $ 356 miliona, me ka hui ʻo Cupertino e loaʻa ana i nā lako, lako polokalamu, a me nā patent a pau o AuthenTec. ʻO ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o ka iPhone 5S, kahi i hoʻomaka ai ka hana Touch ID i kona hoʻomaka ʻana, no laila ke neʻe nei i nā lewa a me nā palena. Loaʻa i ka poʻe loea ma AuthenTec kahi manaʻo maopopo loa e pili ana i ka hana ʻana o nā mea ʻike manamana lima i nā smartphones, akā ʻaʻole lākou i hana maikaʻi loa i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa mua. Akā i ka manawa i hana ai ʻo AuthenTec i nā hoʻololi kūpono i kēia ʻaoʻao, ua hōʻike nā hui e like me Motorola, Fujitsu a me Apple i ʻōlelo ʻia ma luna o ka ʻenehana hou, me ka lanakila ʻana o Apple ma waena o nā poʻe hoihoi āpau ma AuthenTec. Ua hoʻomaka mua nā kikowaena ʻenehana like ʻole e wānana pehea e hoʻohana ai ʻo Apple i kēia ʻenehana ʻaʻole wale no ke komo ʻana, akā no nā uku.
Akā ʻaʻole ʻo Apple ka mea hana kelepona mua e hoʻokomo i ka hōʻoia manamana lima i kāna huahana. ʻO ka mua ma kēia kuhikuhi ʻo Motorola, nāna i hoʻolako i kāna Mobility Atrix 2011G me kēia ʻenehana ma 4. Akā i ka hihia o kēia hāmeʻa, ʻaʻole maʻalahi ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka sensor. Aia ka mea ʻike ma ke kua o ke kelepona, a no ka hōʻoia ʻana he pono nō hoʻi e holo i kahi manamana lima ma luna o ka mea ʻike ma mua o ka hoʻopā wale ʻana iā ia. Ma hope iki, akā naʻe, ua hoʻokō ʻo Apple i kahi hopena palekana, wikiwiki a maʻalahi, a ʻo kēia manawa ke kau wale ʻana i kou manamana lima ma ke pihi kūpono.
Uaʻike muaʻia kaʻenehana Touch ID ma ka iPhone 5S, i hoʻokomoʻia i ka makahiki 2013. I ka hoʻomakaʻana, ua hoʻohana waleʻia e wehe i ka mea, akā i ka manawa i loaʻa ai ka hoʻohanaʻana i nā wahi'ē aʻe, a me ka hikiʻana mai o ka iPhone 6 a me ka iPhone. 6 Hoʻohui, ua hoʻomaka ʻo Apple e ʻae i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka Touch ID no ka hōʻoia ʻana ma iTunes a i ʻole ka uku ʻana ma o Apple Pay. Me ka iPhone 6S a me 6S Plus, ua hoʻolauna ʻo Apple i ka lua o ka hanauna Touch ID sensor, ka mea i hoʻokiʻekiʻe i ka wikiwiki o ka nānā ʻana. Ma ka liʻiliʻi, ua loaʻa ka hana Touch ID i kona ala ʻaʻole wale i nā iPads, akā i nā laptops mai ka hale hana o Apple, a i kēia manawa pū kekahi i nā Magic Keyboards i ʻāpana o nā iMacs hou loa.
