[...] c'est une montre électronique [...] qui, à première vue, ressemble à n'importe quelle montre connectée moderne, sauf qu'elle peut stocker tous vos identifiants et moyens de paiements sans contact, le tout protégé par un système biométrique. En l'occurrence, c'est le poignet du propriétaire, et uniquement son poignet, qui peut la déverrouiller. Parce que [...] l'authentification se fait par l'empreinte veineuse. Pas d'empreinte digitale ou de reconnaissance faciale, c'est la reconnaissance des veines du poignet de l'utilisateur qui permet d'accéder aux données. C'est un capteur au dos du cadran qui scanne le poignet et la déverrouille. 2, record 1, French, - reconnaissance%20des%20veines%20du%20poignet
