Microsoft Granted patent for headphone verification technology

TapTechNews June 19. Microsoft was granted a technical patent on June 13 this year to explore headphone verification technology. In the future, users can not only use headphones to listen to music and make calls, but also become keys to authenticate identities when cooperating with other computing devices.

Microsoft stated in the patent that after the user wears this headphone, it can emit ultrasonic signals and capture the voiceprint through the built-in microphone, which can identify the user's special ear shape for identity authentication.

Microsoft described in the patent that this headphone can not only judge whether the user is currently using the headphone through echoes, but also this headphone can be used in coordination with other devices. When the user wears the headphone and approaches other devices, the user no longer needs to perform the login operation and can directly enter. TapTechNews attached relevant pictures as follows:

The ultrasonic signal used by this headphone matches the shape of your ear, thus forming a biometric lock that is not easy to crack. After the user takes out the headphone, it no longer verifies new sessions, and the user can freely decide whether to adopt this identity verification method, enhancing security.
