News link


Are you sick of that unblock the mobile with difficult passwords or digital fingerprint that be difficult to detect. Well, Fujitsu has created a prototype of a phone that is unlocked with your iris, thanks to a infrared cameras.
According to the creators, although the demo can not do it, in the final product, the software can recognize your eyes, even if you use contact lenses or glasses. The iris scan authentication provides a method much better and more faster than the reading of fingerprint or facial recognition.
Currently there is no model of phone that have this camera, but it is expected that in recent years these can appear.

This can be very useful, because now the modes of unlock mobile aren't very secure. For example if you use digits can be discovered and fingerprints aren't useful because if the button is a little dirty be difficult to detect.

Question 8

It was the day before the birthday of Henry.Quickly I had to go to the store to buy a present. henry is one of my best friends, for this reason I can't buy any gift. In the end I bought the videogame that he told me heliked.
I woke up and I was nervous to go to the party. When I went to the livingroom I didn't saw the present, but I didn't careabout this. One hour before the party I started to prepare to go there. I wanted the gift but I didn'tfind it this anywhere. I asked my mother if she saw this, but she said that she didn't saw it today. Fiveteen minutesbefore to left, I was so nervous and I decided to caress my dog. In the doghouse I saw something strange on the floor. Surprisingly, it was the present for Henry. Unfortunately, was a little bit bitten.
