Image Recognition
Every since fingerprint recognition has been invented, it’s been marketed as one of the safest security measures in real life, being around 90% effective at protecting your phone. But what if I told you, that someone could unlock your phone with materials you could find at the dollar store! Not even identical twins have the same fingerprint, and the chances of so many phone companies favour fingerprint recognition for its simplicity. However, there are some downsides to fingerprint recognition like your fingerprint becoming unrecognizable due to injuries on your finger, or other substances like dust or sweat coating your print. However, this is rare as fingerprint technology is very reliable against unknown fingerprints, so most criminals bypass fingerprint sensors by creating a copy of the user's fingerprint.
