Apple’s new patent revolutionizes Face ID: smaller components, lower cost, and higher accuracy
IT Home News on May 29, technology media patentlyapple released a blog post yesterday (May 28), reporting that Apple has been approved for a new patent involving the next generation of Face ID technology, from diffractive optical elements (DOE) to more advanced “metasurface optical components” (MOE).
According to a blog post, Apple’s existing Face ID relies on diffractive optical elements (DOEs) to generate dot-like illumination patterns for 3D mapping of the target area.

Traditional structured light projectors typically require multiple optical components, including DOEs and collimating lenses, to split the beam and project a dot-like pattern. Although these projection modules are small enough to be embedded in smartphones, there is still a need for further shrinkage.The patent proposes a metasurface optical element (MOE) design scheme, which integrates beam splitting and collimation functions in a single flat element, which can not only reduce the size of the projection module, reduce the production cost, but also simplify the assembly process and reduce the impact of manufacturing errors.

This design ensures that the dot pattern covers the camera’s field of view, improving the accuracy of 3D mapping. In addition, the device can be activated alternately by the controller for spot lighting and flood lighting, which can be flexibly adapted to the needs of different scenarios.

Google’s new research: Quantum computers of less than a million bits can crack the RSA encryption algorithm in less than 7 days, which is 20 times easier than 6 years ago.
Silent revolutions often unfold quietly behind the glass door of the laboratory. However, Google’s latest research shows that the impact of the quantum computing revolution has begun to oscillate outward – which may shake the foundation of Internet security.
On May 21, Google Quantum AI published on arXiv that “How to factor 2048 bit RSA integers with less than a m The paper entitled “illion noisy qubits” (how to use less than 1 million noisy qubits to decompose 2048-bit RSA integers). Research shows that a quantum computer with less than 1 million noise-containing qubits can crack the 2048-bit RSA encryption key (the current mainstream standard of network data security) in less than a week. This value is only 1/20 of the author’s own prediction of about 20 million qubits in 2019. !

This study was completed by Craig Gidney, a Google quantum research scientist, and may redefine the technical threshold needed to threaten the world’s most widely used public key password system.
This study may prompt experts to re-evaluate: 1) the urgency of quantum cryptons after deployment; 2) the practical feasibility of implementing such attacks on the currently proposed hardware. More broadly, the study also shows that although factors such as the number of quantum bits, gate fidelity and error rate are very important, through algorithm innovation and software and hardware collaborative optimization, quantum computing can also achieve milestone breakthroughs such as quantum advantages!

The Mesa 25.2-devel version today merged a major patch from Microsoft, including 61925 lines of code, and introduced a new Gallium3D front-end – Media Foundation Transforms (M FT).
iIT Home quoted a blog post that the core of Microsoft’s contribution is that the MFT front-end is closely combined with Direct3D 12 (D3D12) Gallium3D driver. According to the description of the merge request (MR) submitted by Microsoft, this front-end calls the D3D12 driver through the pipe interface to achieve the asynchronous media conversion function.
As part of the Media Foundation architecture, MFT is widely used in decoders, encoders and digital signal processors (DSP), and is an indispensable component in the media pipeline. Microsoft documents point out that compared with the previous DirectX Media Objects (DMO) model, MFT has a clearer code of conduct, supports hardware accelerated video processing, and provides a more friendly implementation environment for developers.
In addition, Microsoft also attached a detailed description file (readme.md) in the submission to provide reference for subsequent development. This code patch of more than 60,000 lines has been officially merged, significantly enhancing the ability of the Mesa graphics stack under the Windows platform.
