If last month was a rumor that area Galaxy S5 features a device for eye recognition to unlock the screen of your smartphone using your eye, part of eventually your body as unique as your fingerprints, it is now back following the discovery of a patent filed by the Korean.

we describe more accurately used by the eye scanner that could be included in the next smartphone brand, patent leads to other questions on the extent of the scope of this technology is limited may not be easy to unlock the device and could very well replace the different saved passwords and other authentication process, including online payments.

Your Galaxy S5 can read in your eyes.

As you can see from the diagram that accompanies the patent, eye reader will broadcast to your iris light shown here in yellow. It is this light that will allow Galaxy S5 analyze your eye and authenticate. Then, once your identity recognized, eye recognition could also be used to unlock your smartphone for entering passwords.

Theoretically more reliable than fingerprint readers but more expensive to produce, recognition device eye that Samsung wants to implement the Galaxy S5 should not be confined merely to unlock

of the screen. It is thus quite possible that the device offers different output when it’s software related features.

pushing reflection further, we can also imagine such a device implemented on the device providing multi-user and offering, for example, custom profiles for each of them.

Note that as suggested by several sources and as also suggests the scheme or device seems already built into the unit, ocular reader would obviously developed and produced in-house.
