Introduce Apple MacBook Touch ID in the Future?

Apple introduced its fingerprint sensor for the first time on the iPhone 5s and have since been gradually expanding to other devices. New generations of iPhone and iPad Touch ID feature, and according to recent rumors the company could expand its borders and incorporate that future MacBook Touch ID .

The fingerprint sensor Touch Apple ID could make the leap to portable computers like the MacBook or MacBook Pro in the not too distant future. This is reflected in one of the last patent Apple recently published in a Touch ID sensor integrated into a MacBook shown on one side of the keyboard.

This also opens up the possibility that Apple will include technology in the wireless keyboard of the iMac . Yes, for now they are just assumptions based on a patent and may not go beyond the role.

Apple Touch ID could include in future generations of MacBook

It's been a few years since Apple decided to use the Touch ID for the first time on the iPhone 5s . No doubt that biometric technology has been a success for Apple, in fact many competing manufacturers have followed in his footsteps after including its own fingerprint sensors on their smartphones.

The Touch ID provides greater security in protecting the smartphone or tablet so you can only unlock its owner. It also works perfectly with Apple Pay, but unfortunately the service of mobile payments is rather limited.

In addition, little by little they are expanding the uses of the iPhone fingerprint sensor . For example, thanks to applications like FingerKey the MacBook user can unlock your mobile by pressing the Home button using the Bluetooth connection.

However, it would be much better than the Touch ID sensor was part directly on the computer and not have to depend on another device apart, since not everyone who has a MacBook has an iPhone. Apple has won a new patent which integrates fingerprint sensor in the keyboard of a MacBook, which was recorded in 2007 as explained in PatentlyApple .

The integrated into the MacBook Touch ID make a breakthrough

It is not yet known whether Apple finally decide to make this a reality patent or never see a MacBook with Touch ID, but recognize that could be a big boost to the range of Apple computers. In addition, the Touch ID would be useful, as would allow the user to unlock the computer and perform more functions without entering passwords .
