Samsung Improves its Iris Scanner

Korea Herald: The oncoming "Galaxy S9’s iris scanner will have an improved camera lens and functions to make it better to recognize the eyes of users.

The iris camera lens will be improved to 3MP from 2MP of Galaxy S8 and Galaxy Note 8 to capture clearer images. The scanner will better recognize users’ irises even when they wear eyeglasses, move their eyeballs or are in a too dark or too light environment. The response time will also be shorter from the current one second.

Samsung is also on target to expand the iris scanner into budget models possibly late next year or early 2019 with the ultimate aim of replacing physical banks with mobile banking.
"

A Samsung spokesperson said, “Iris scanner is the safest biometric authentication (among iris, fingerprint and face recognition) and we will continue to improve the system for upcoming smartphones for safer banking transactions.
