Future of Tech: Apple Launches iPhone X, Introducing Face ID

In September 2017, Apple unveiled the iPhone X, its tenth-anniversary edition, featuring several major design and technological innovations. The most notable was the replacement of the traditional Home button and Touch ID with Face ID (facial recognition). The implementation of Face ID relied on complex 3D depth-sensing hardware and advanced AI algorithms.

This move established a new standard for biometric technology, signaling the large-scale integration of artificial intelligence into the core functions of consumer hardware by technology giants, further shaping the mobile computing and user interaction paradigms of the Future World.
