The iris scanning device replaces the traditional password

With the ambition to end the security era by setting a password, the US electronics giant Voxx Electronics has launched an iris (black box) device that allows users to secure The information in the phone or personal computer is more effective than using traditional passwords.

Accordingly, a security device called Myris , which Voxx teamed up with Eyelock Biometric Technologies, created a compact, user-friendly scanner that converts personal identifying data into code snippets. chemistry

The device will then be attached to a computer, a phone or any device that needs security via a USB port and users need only to use the eye to unlock. In other words, with Myris, users can connect to their phones or PCs, online banking logs, email and social networks with a single blink.

Speaking to the press, Voxx President Tom Malone expressed the hope that this iris recognition technology could replace the traditional password-based approach because this invention has high accuracy and security with error in scale of 1/2000 billion.

According to Malone, although many iridium scanning devices have been used for security purposes in businesses and corporations, this is the first time this technology has been produced as a consumer product. . Without announcing a specific price, the Voxx leader said Myris will be sold through retail channels at affordable prices.

The iris recognition technology is a method of biometrics based on the complex and unique structure of the iris to identify a person, even when they are wearing glasses or using contact lenses.

Experts also note that this method of identifying the iris is often highly accurate and secure, while providing convenient and fast access to the user. Currently, the technology is being studied by electronics firms, including the Samsung Group, to be widely applied in practice and promises to be the leading method in future security technologies.
