There is still a week, Apple's new iPhone will be on the stage. Before the release, the exposure of the new iPhone's appearance and hardware is endless, but people's attention to iOS 12 is not so high.
As early as a few months ago, foreign media released a cool feature about iOS 12, which is the ability for users to achieve eye tracking through ARKit 2. This article has received a lot of attention from fruit powder in a short period of time. It is not difficult to guess. The upcoming Apple Autumn Conference will be likely to release an eye-controlled interactive version of the iPhone.
In fact, Apple began to deploy eye tracking technology many years ago. According to reports, Apple submitted a patent application for eye tracking technology in September 2012 and obtained approval from the US Patent and Trademark Office. According to Apple, Technology can delay the operation of the display operation according to the user's line of sight, and can also change the user interface to generate and execute related information. Since then, Apple has applied for a number of patents for eye tracking technology.
In 2017, Apple acquired the German company SMI, which focuses on the development of eye tracking technology. This has caused widespread concern in the industry and has caused speculations from many industry practitioners that Apple may apply eye tracking technology to the iPhone.
At this year's Apple Autumn Conference, Apple is likely to showcase this eye-control interaction technology on the new iPhone. The scenes in science fiction may have come.
