Sidestepping lockscreen codes and fingerprint scanners -- and without any new hardware demands -- KDDI has unveiled a new palm authentication app that takes advantage of the high-resolution camera on its Android smartphones.
While the hardware has remained mostly unchanged, the company's gone to town on the cameraapp, moving beyond the Windows Phone Lens system to craft a new Smart Cam interface.
We've been assured that Nokia's camera software additions (burst shot and the like) will arrive intact with some new local app content also likely to arrive alongside the new handset.
Combining three different intelligent elements in one touch, the SMART CAMERAApp. integrates the upgraded capabilities of Remote Viewfinder and Mobile Link as well as the new AutoShare tool putting users in control from beginning to end of the connected photographer's journey.
