Google Pixel 4: how does its face unlock feature work?


The Google Pixel 4 has been recently revealed. It contains interesting aspects such as enhanced camera, motion-sensing radar and live transcription. There is also a lot of hype around the face unlock feature. Is it the same one as Apple’s? Both the iPhone and the Pixel 4 use an infrared sensor that will project dots on your facial features and to create a map of your face. However, Google’s technology also leverages a small chip that senses your motion using radar. As such, you will not be able to unlock the Pixel 4 without the help of Motion Sense.
