Samsung Exynos 9810 chipset announced, with support for 3D face scanning
Samsung Exynos 9810 next generation chipset for smartphones and tablets is now official. The new chipsert from Samsung is built on 10nm FinFET process and supports advanced face recognition so we can expect FaceID like features in Android smartphones. The Exynos 9 Series 9810 is currently in mass production.
“The Exynos 9 Series 9810 is our most innovative mobile processor yet, with our third-generation custom CPU, ultra-fast gigabit LTE modem and, deep learning-enhanced image processing,” said Ben Hur, vice president of System LSI marketing at Samsung Electronics. “The Exynos 9810 will be a key catalyst for innovation in smart platforms such as smartphones, personal computing and automotive for the coming AI era.”
AI has been one of the biggest buzzwords in 2018 and Samsung is going to throw a lot of resources to get AI perfected. Exynos 9810 introduces sophisticated features to enhance user experiences with neural network-based deep learning and stronger security on the most advanced mobile devices. This cutting-edge technology allows the processor to accurately recognize people or items in photos for fast image searching or categorization, or through depth sensing, scan a user’s face in 3D for hybrid face detection. By utilizing both hardware and software, hybrid face detection enables realistic face-tracking filters as well as stronger security when unlocking a device with one’s face. For added security, the processor has a separate security processing unit to safeguard vital personal data such as facial, iris and fingerprint information.
