Huawei Claims That They Make 10 Times Better Face Id Unlock Than Apple.

Huawei claims that its own features will be substantially better than Apple’s, both in terms of security and usability. Huawei claims that they have built better technology.



                      The mobile landscape is full of competition in this new era of smartphones. When one company unveils something new, it’s a mad dash to try and make a better version. Apple seemingly made a better version of face unlock with Face ID and now everyone is trying to match it. Huawei claims that they have built better technology.
   
            One of the most bizarre features of the new iPhone X has been the Animojis. Apple took some of the most popular emojis and made them mimic facial expression of the person using depth sensing front snapper of iPhone X.

Taking note of the same, Huawei recently unveiled two technologies which they think are so much better than those on the iPhone X. During a press event, company executives announce that they  provided the attendants with a glimpse into the feature line-up of a future Android phone model, revealing that it plans to roll out not only a facial recognition system similar to Face ID but also animated emoji based on this tech that would essentially be a clone of Apple’s Animoji.

Huawei’s system is secure enough to be used for mobile payments, unlike the face unlock on most Android phones. They even showed off an Animoji clone that could tell if your tongue was sticking out. The technology for this type of security should only get better.

                     Inside the Honor, the similarities are even greater. The Honor V10 runs on the same Kirin 970 chip, which Huawei has pitted against both Apple and Samsung because of its built-in NPU (Neural Processing Unit). There are 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. The dual cameras on the back get a 16 megapixel RGB sensor and a 20 megapixel monochrome sensor. The front camera has 13 megapixels, but that’s not what makes the sensor array interesting.

                           Apple’s TrueDepth technology utilizes a variety of sensors, including camera, IR, and laser, to map the user’s face. This is pretty much the technology Apple got when it acquired Xbox Kinect sensor maker PrimeSense. Huawei and Honor are saying they can do something similar for less. Specifically, they have taken out the laser from the equation and replaced it with a VCSEL projector. The V10 uses “fringe projection” to map the 3D form of the user’s face. In the case of the V10, the 1280×800 resolution produces a map with 300,000 points in 10 seconds.

Huawei and Honor also boast of the speed of this implementation, unlocking within 400 milliseconds, which is actually slower than fingerprint scanners. They do claim it is also secure enough for banking applications and accurate enough for the most important application of all: animojis.

               The Animoji clone that uses the said facial recognition system beats Apple’s version because it seemingly recognises stuck out tongue of the users. This is a feature that’s missing on the iPhone X for now, but which Huawei apparently sees as a major achievement that will help the company beat Apple in their own game.
