Fujitsu ships first phone with eyeball-scanning authentication

Fujitsu Arrows NX F-04G claims to be the first phone to use iris recognition to authenticate users and unlock. The new phone has a front-facing camera that doubles as a biometric iris scanner to replace passwords for operating the phone and its apps. The camera specs seem to be a bit switched around, meaning the iris-scanning front camera runs on a measly 2 megapixels. It will be interesting to see how long this and other forms of biometrics have already been bypassed with remarkably simple techniques. The CCC has used similar techniques to crack Apples Touch ID system.”]
