Revealed Apple patent shows future Macs may support under-screen Face ID technology

December 22 news, according to a recently published list from the United States Trademark and Patent Office (USPTO), Apple recently obtained a design patent related to Mac devices. This patent may mean that future Mac devices will support Face ID facial recognition technology

The patent number is US 20230409075 A1, and the name is "Electronics including under-screen cameras" equipment". In the description of the patent, it is mentioned that in current electronic devices, the front-facing camera usually occupies a part of the screen area, thereby reducing the potential area of ​​the screen available for display. Apple’s idea is to place the camera below the screen to free up more display area

According to my understanding, in this patent implementation case, the device includes a display with a front surface and a back surface. This display consists of multiple pixel areas that emit light from the front surface to display images, and multiple apertures that allow light to pass from the front surface to the back surface. A camera is provided on the rear surface for photographing subjects. In addition, this device also has a processor, which is connected to the display and camera, and is used to receive and process the captured images

By deploying two layers of digital filters, the image distortion caused by the display can be effectively reduced, Thereby improving image quality. The acquisition of this patent shows that Apple is continuously researching and developing new technologies to further improve the user experience of its Mac devices and may introduce facial recognition technology to future Mac products to provide greater security and convenience. For Apple users, this is undoubtedly an exciting development
