<p>All signs are pointing to Apple’s iPhone 8 arriving with new technologies that will replace Touch ID as we know it. So far the predicted possibilities include an optical fingerprint sensor (https://9to5mac.com/2017/01/21/kgi-apple-iphone-face-recognition-biometrics/), facial and gesture recognition (https://9to5mac.com/2017/01/18/iphone-8-facial-recognition-sensor-feature/), a next generation on-screen capacitive touch (https://9to5mac.com/2016/10/04/touch-id-in-display-iphone-8/) method, and as we reported last year when Apple filed the patent, ultrasonic imaging (https://9to5mac.com/2016/05/18/home-button-in-iphone-display-screen/). More details have just come out about how sound imaging technology will work in a patent filed today by Apple.</p>
