We have already seen many things about Apple patents in soy de Mac, and in this case it is a patent that refers to gestures and facial detection in equipment. Gestures on Macs are something that some users have been asking for for years and we have seen applications that allow you to use gestures to perform certain actions on Macs, but Apple seems to have always overlooked these functions on computers a bit. Now thanks to a patent registered and published in Patently Apple, bells ring again on the Possibility to control the Mac with gestures in addition to having the integrated Face ID.
IPhone X technology on Macs
The new iPhone X models have the TrueDepth camera integrated into the notch, this is something that could be perfectly integrated into the Mac and further reduce the frames if possible. It could also add security and simplicity when it comes to unlocking the Mac at the level of the iPhone X. When they added Touch ID in the MacBook Pro, we all expected that they would add it to the rest of the equipment in the Mac range, now this patent opens up a new range of possibilities that hopefully they will be added not only in the Pro versions, which are added to all Macs.
This would be very good news for those who want to buy a Mac in the future and is that in addition to being able to enjoy the TrueDepth camera actions could be performed through gestures. This can be interesting in some specific moments of use on the Mac, logically they will not be necessary for basic office automation tasks or similar, but to be able to perform some actions to raise or lower the brightness, the audio or simply play songs or put the Mac to sleep , it would be worth it.
Something well implemented. Undoubtedly this technology must be very well implemented in Macs and in the case of Apple when it makes a change as important as the one shown in this patent, They won't release it until it works perfectly.
