Not too long ago, Apple introduced a system that allowed users to control whether an app could track their activity, which is essentially a trail of the web activity that you leave with your taps or mouse clicks on a computer. In the same vein, Apple is treating Vision Pro users’ eye gaze as a digital fingerprint. But this time, Apple will outright block any third party from knowing what part or element of the screen users’ eyes were exploring.
Third parties will only be able to zero down on the movement once users click on an on-screen item. Apple does this by isolating eye input and observation to separate background processes. Moreover, irrespective of the app you are running, they won’t get access to your surroundings captured by the external cameras.
The Optic ID system seems tailor-made for Passkeys, a password-less log-in system that already accepts Face ID and Touch ID for authentication. However, Apple didn’t explicitly confirm whether Optic ID will be integrated with the Passkeys system when the Vision Pro headset hits the shelves. The headset costs a handsome $3,499 and will be available early next year, hoping to kickstart a new computing trend that relies on the immersive experience offered by AR and VR.
