Polar ID from Metalenz offers a cutting-edge face unlock solution, using advanced meta-optic technology to provide secure, high-resolution facial recognition capabilities. It captures the unique "polarization signature" of a human face, making it resistant to both 2D photos and sophisticated 3D masks. Polar ID operates efficiently in a variety of lighting conditions, from bright daylight to dark environments, ensuring its utility extends across all smartphone models without sacrificing security or user experience. This technology replaces complex structured light modules, incorporating a single near-infrared polarization camera and active illumination source. It significantly reduces costs and footprint, supporting a broad adoption across hundreds of millions of mobile devices. With its low price point and high performance, Polar ID elevates smartphone security, offering robust protection for digital transactions and identity verification. By enabling this on an embedded platform with compatibility for Qualcomm's Snapdragon processors, Metalenz ensures widespread applicability. The key advantage of Polar ID is its affordability and ease of integration, as it eliminates the need for larger, more intrusive notches in phone designs. Its sophisticated polarization sensing means secure authentication is possible even if the user wears sunglasses or masks. Polar ID sets a new benchmark in smartphone security by delivering convenience and enhanced protection, marking it as the first polarization sensor available for smartphones.
The Orion Family of Pattern Projectors from Metalenz harnesses the power of meta-optics to offer precise pattern projection capabilities.
