iPhones and iPads come with either Touch ID or Face ID, depending on the model you choose, offering a convenient way to confirm your identity without having to type in a passcode every time you need to use your device. But what happens when you have a headset, like Apple Vision Pro, which isn’t really suited to either? That’s where Optic ID comes into play.
Optic ID is an iris scanner, which can scan the colored part of your eyes to confirm that the correct person is using the Vision Pro headset. This scanning is done thanks to the Vision Pro’s eye-tracking system, with “eye-safe near-infrared light” illuminating the eye for the internal cameras to capture images of your iris.
