The XDA-Developers forum, which first exposed the Android Q development version, is full of enthusiasm for discovering new features of the system. I am afraid that the underwear will be seen. Recently, developers have found that Android Q will add hardware-level native facial recognition. Support, and provide pasteboard read permission management and application rollback function.

As early as in the Android 4.0 era, the face recognition function based on the image recognition of the front camera was added to the system. At that time, the people who tried it would feel that the recognition time required for unlocking was not as good as entering the password directly, and the security was also worrying. , using pictures to fool face input and recognition, there is no "biometric" at all.

Until the iPhone X brought face recognition supported by structured light technology, Android vendors followed the face recognition of various technologies. The cost-effective model uses the same type of structured light, and the volume control is changed to infrared recognition. Without the hardware support, the image recognition of the deep learning blessing is simply the Eight Immortals.

But until now, these face recognitions have been created independently by mobile phone manufacturers, and Google has not yet done relevant support on the Android system. Android Q's newly discovered face recognition feature will bring a unified recognition interface to Android phones, just like the fingerprint recognition support that was too late.

The new Android system-level face recognition support is not only based on the camera to scan portraits, structural light and infrared hardware tools are also included in the scope of support, all the scenes involving passwords can call fingerprint recognition, whether it is payment or login account.

What was discovered at the same time was the permission management to join the read clipboard. Anyone who has used Alipay applications such as Taobao Alipay knows that you can copy and paste a long copy from others into the application. This comes from reading the clipboard. The fast input function of the input method is also based on this principle.

But now the Android system allows all applications to read the clipboard. All the information on the clipboard of the mobile phone is obtained by the application without a little defense. It can be said that the security is too low. Permission management for the clipboard added to Android Q will allow permission management for each application to read the clipboard, and only if allowed, can be read as freely as the system's built-in applications.

Now you have to find the old version of the installation package to return to the old version, but in the near future Android Q will support the application store's application rollback function, you can go back to the old version without covering the installation point. From the news point of view, Android Q will be unprecedentedly powerful, looking forward to the new features and features officially displayed at the Google I/O conference in May.
