LG has now developed a better IRIS scanner which can’t be fooled by showing pictures of owner somewhat like hackproof.As per patents, the LG Advance IRIS scanner will read the biometric characteristic of the eye and sets up the light screen and dark screen as IRIS size varies depending on the light you get.Now the sensor will detect the owner if you are not the owner then it will not show the sensitive data and if you are the owner of the device it will unlock the app.
LG is using the IRIS scanner without the help of IR sensor which is basically needed to run the IRIS scanner which means that it will take lesser space and we can expect thinner bezels above the display.
