Apple is developing technology that will allow the company to hide the sensors integrated into the Face ID unit directly under the display matrix on future iPhones. This was reported by the publication MyDrivers with reference to the corresponding patent application.
Apple’s app describes a technology that allows you to make invisible not only Face ID, but other sensors as well. In particular, sensors for the recognition of movements and pressure, magnetic sensors and more are mentioned.
An illustration is attached to Apple’s patent. Schematically showing an iPhone with the Face ID unit still above the screen. Current models of Apple smartphones are developed according to the same scheme.
MyDrivers writes that current technologies do not allow Apple’s idea to be implemented without compromising the accuracy of the sensors. According to rumors, Apple plans to use the under-display Face ID unit until 2026, when the iPhone 17 is released.
