Galaxy Tab 8.4 Pro 2015: the first Samsung tablet with … – Phonandroid

This technology was expected to see land on the Galaxy S5 then the Galaxy Note 4. It will eventually took until 2015 to see iris recognition is inviting Samsung with a new version of the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 which will be presented next month during the ISC West 2015.

Contrary to what you might have expected, the new does not come from Samsung but company specializing in security and biometrics, SRI International, which has just formalized its partnership with the Korean manufacturer. In addition, the first terminal of the firm to the board will not be a new smartphone but new version of the Galaxy Tab 8.4 , high-end tablet originally launched at CES 2014.



This new model will provide the user with quick biometric identity management solutions, easy to use and accurate. Tests have shown that this solution based on iris scanning was 1000 times more reliable than existing fingerprint readers.

Although the statement did not specify it, we imagine that this will be a test version of the tablet, not accessible to the general public. Samsung has never hidden his interest in iris recognition and this new partnership with SRI International will probably allow him to test this technology before offering on its future smartphones and tablets . Here’s what the vice president said Samsung Injong Rhee, last year, shortly after the presentation of the Galaxy S5:

We are looking for different types of biometric mechanisms the one that everyone is looking for, it is the iris recognition.

California-based SRI International is also creator of a company called Siri acquired by Apple in 2010 to make the use we all know. Note that in addition to Samsung, BlackBerry is preparing a SecuTablet based on the S Galaxy Tab 10.5.
