Apple patent application describes user ID via heartbeat

“Future iterations of the iPhone could very well support sophisticated embedded heart sensors to monitor the user’s heart,” Jack Purcher reports for Patently Apple.

Cardiac sensors would “record such data for future identification purposes when making banking transactions or protecting highly sensitive documents or data,” Purcher reports. “This will play a part of a future patent report due later this month.”

Purcher reports, “Today’s patent further confirms that a future iPhone will indeed support a pico or pico-like projector.”
