Ik moest inderdaad ook steeds denken aan die Mythbusters aflevering. Ik hoop dat ze hem nogmaals uit gaan voeren maar deze keer voor de iPhone (en eventueel andere smartphones met fingerprint scanner).
Wat ik ook zeker interessant vond is de M7 coprocessor en Core Motion:
The new M7 coprocessor is like a sidekick to the A7 chip. It’s designed specifically to measure motion data from the accelerometer, gyroscope, and compass — a task that would normally fall to the A7 chip. But M7 is much more efficient at it. Now fitness apps that track physical activity can access that data from the M7 coprocessor without constantly engaging the A7 chip. So they require less battery power.
M7 knows when you’re walking, running, or even driving. For example, Maps switches from driving to walking turn-by-turn navigation if, say, you park and continue on foot. Since M7 can tell when you’re in a moving vehicle, iPhone 5s won’t ask you to join Wi-Fi networks you pass by. And if your phone hasn’t moved for a while, like when you’re asleep, M7 reduces network pinging to spare your battery.
Pretty cool
Jammer dat levering voor Nederland nog ongedefinieerd is, zal wel door de
lage yields komen van de fingerprint sensor...
