Njengenjwayelo, ngezikhathi ezithile i-United States Patent ne-Trademark Office ivula amalungelo obunikazi muva nje. Namuhla siletha uchungechunge lwazo olwethulwe yi-Apple, okungaba okuthakazelisa ngempela maqondana nokuklanywa nokwenza ngcono kwamahedfoni kusuka kumkhiqizo waseCalifornia.
Zonke zibizwa nje "Ama-Earbuds ane-Biometric Sensing", futhi wenze uchungechunge lokuthuthuka i-Apple engacabanga ukwethula kuma-AirPods azayo.
Ukufakwa kwamalungelo obunikazi kukhombisa a PPG, okuyinto inzwa ezoqapha idatha ethile yebhayomethrikhi yomuntu oyisebenzisela ukuthuthukisa ulwazi lokuyisebenzisa. Le ndlela ayikho kude neqiniso ngoba i-Apple Watch isivele iyisebenzisa.
Inkinga enkulu yale sensor ukuthi endaweni lapho kuthiwe inzwa kufanele iye khona, i-tragus, ngokuvamile akukho ndawo yokuxhumana eyenele ukuthola imininingwane enembile ye-biometric. Ngakho-ke, kulolu chungechunge lobunikazi, i-Apple ichaza ukuthi lo mkhawulo unganqotshwa kanjani.
Esinye sezixazululo kungaba ukubeka ifayela le- Inzwa ye-PPG eduze kokuvula kwesipikha sendlebe, ngaleyo ndlela kuphoqa zombili izindawo ukuthi zixhumane. Okwakho, imininingwane yamalungelo obunikazi "olugcina udonga" ngakolunye uhlangothi lwenzwa, ukufaka ihedsethi endlebeni yomsebenzisi ngamunye.
I-Podemos qonda isakhiwo esakhiwe yi-Apple kulo mdwebo olandelayo:
Le inzwa yebhayomethrikhi ingahlinzeka ngemininingwane yomsebenzisi njengokushaya kwenhliziyo, ukushisa komzimba kanye neminye imininingwane oyithandayo.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-Apple yethula i- ukumiswa okungunxantathu kwemakrofoni ezintathu ezakhelwe kwi-AirPod njengesiphakamiso sokwenza futhi ukukhanselwa komsindo wemiklamo yehedfoni yesikhathi esizayo. Ngokusobala ukukhanselwa komsindo njengamanje kwama-AirPod amanje yinto abagxekwe kakhulu ngayo.
Njengenjwayelo, ukwethulwa kanye / noma ukutholakala kwalolu hlobo lobunikazi akusho ukubuyekezwa ngokushesha emikhiqizweni ezayo yomkhiqizo, kodwa kunalokho kusisiza ukuba siqonde njengombukiso, iya kuphi ubuchwepheshe emisha.
