BIOMETRIC MARK OF THE BEAST UPDATE: ‘Infrared Under-Display Facial Recognition’ possible with quantum-inspired computational chemistry. The material is currently available to OEMs as more smartphones are being released with under-display facial recognition capabilities.

Under-display cameras and facial recognition are in high demand as consumers yearn for smartphones with a bezel-free display. Through quantum-inspired computing, OTI Lumionics has developed a material that has made under-display facial recognition a reality. But phones that are currently on the market with under-display cameras have shown varying degrees of success. Biometric Update spoke with VP and Co-founder Jacky Qiu on how its ConductTorr cathode patterning material (CPM) enables under-display face biometrics, as well as areas of improvement for smartphones.

The goal of CPM is to pattern windows in the OLED to allow InfraRed (IR) rays to pass through the cathodes, allowing for facial recognition. Cathodes in traditional OLED stacks are “typically highly absorbent in the IR range and semi-absorbent in the optical range,” says Qiu.

Traditional ways of patterning for OLEDs don’t work well for enabling under-display cameras and facial recognition. The process is sensitive to moisture and air, and OLEDs could easily become damaged. Instead, with CPM patterning, a cathode electrode material will be put through a self-assembly process in a high vacuum, forming a film only in the areas without the CPM material.

Qiu says the material functions “a bit like teflon,” which is used to make pans non-stick. “The area where your CPM material is, there is no deposition of metal material,” he says.

Currently, OTI Lumionics’s ConductTorr CPM is the only mass production-ready solution for cathode patterning under-display cameras that would allow facial recognition to be performed. The material was found using the quantum-inspired Materials Discovery Platform.

Chemical synthesis, which uses a traditional trial-and-error approach to discovery, “is incredibly expensive and takes a lot of time,” says Qiu. Using quantum chemistry simulations and AI, the Materials Discovery Platform allows OTI Lumionics to screen candidates quickly. “If we can reduce the number of candidates and increase the accuracy of the materials to the performances that we want, we can do testing a lot faster.” Instead of completing a few thousand simulations in a week, researchers can complete tens or hundreds of thousands of simulations.

While it uses quantum chemistry simulations, the platform isn’t using true quantum computing. “While the algorithms used are designed to be operated on a quantum computer, quantum computing hardware is still not powerful enough to solve the problems that we’re solving. The molecules that we’re dealing with, typically are pretty big molecules that have a lot of electrons. And for each electron, you need a qubit to simulate all this,” explains Qiu.

The early quantum computers that are commercially available don’t have enough qubits to accommodate, he explains. Researchers at OTI “developed a number of algorithms that can optimize the amount of qubits needed and developed novel ways to represent the problems from a quantum computer” which they then input into a supercomputer. They were able to identify the best candidates for materials like CPM.

While the company won’t comment on where their CPM is deployed, the material is currently available to OEMs as more smartphones are being released with under-display facial recognition capabilities.

It’s rumored that Apple will use under-display Face ID after the release of the iPhone 15 models, leaving only a small punch hole for the front-facing camera. And in 2022, OTI Lumionics received $55 million in Series B funding from display manufacturers like LG, Samsung (the world’s top Android phone maker), and United Display Corporation, among other investors.

There are still areas for improvement when it comes to under-display facial recognition. Putting the camera behind the display of a phone minimizes the amount of light that can pass through the screen. While CPM patterning allows for IR rays to pass through, “there will potentially be reduced fidelity.” Users of some devices with the under-display features have also found that face authentication isn’t able to work in low-light settings due to the low transparency of the display panel.

“At minimum, the amount of IR light that hits the sensor would be reduced compared to just a piece of glass in front. But as I said, there is basically significant improvement coming, in our view, for the newer processors,” he says.

In the future, smartphone OEMs may increase the size of the neural engine or the MPU built into the phones, which would improve signal processing for features like face biometrics. This in turn, could mean under-display cameras with facial recognition could yield similar performances to their traditional counterparts, Qiu says.

“The neural engine of the processor increases each year, and especially now that with the advent and popularization of generative AI, that also leverages that same neural engine.” A more powerful processor would also make for better post-image processing for photos, resulting in images that appear more true to life than what current models are producing.

When it comes to IR cameras, increasing transparency is “actually a much more significant issue” compared to blocking diffraction, says Qiu. One could evaluate optical signal performance in under-display cameras through zero-order of transparency, which is a figure determined by taking transparency and diffraction into account, Qiu explains.

OTI Lumionics will present a paper on zero-order of transparency at this year’s Society of Information Display Symposium at San Jose during Display Week in May.

Mark of the Beast (MOB). The Beast Who Requires a ‘MARK.’ (7) The Infrared Vaccination QR Code SMART MARK.

A cashless society would be the end game for economic anonymity and freedom in trade.  CBDCs will make all transactions traceable and easily interrupted by governments and banks.  Imagine a world in which all trade is monitored, all revenues are monitored and transactions can be blocked if they are found to offend the mandates of the system.  Imagine a world where your ability to spend money can be limited to certain retailers, certain services, certain products and chosen regions based on your politics, your social credit score and your background.  The control that comes with CBDCs is immense and allows for complete micromanagement of the population.  The fact that 98% of central banks are already adopting this technology should be one of the biggest news stories of the decade.

When Bill Gates says he has a new vaccine ‘patch’, he is actually talking about his human implantable quantum dot microneedle vaccine delivery system, and it will be powered by AI

The Real Reason People Will Take The Mark Of The Beast

Concerning the coming one-world cashless society and a requirement for tracking all buying and selling during Satan’s earthly kingdom: on Mar. 28, 2024, it was reported that SWIFT (a global group that manages trillions of dollars of banking transactions between nations every day) has developed a Central Bank Digital Currency System (CBDC) that should be operational in 12-24 months. Every person that cares about economic freedom should be wary of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) as perhaps the biggest threat to human liberty since the attempted introduction of vaccine passports. The WEF recently boasted in a new white paper that 98% of all central banks are now pursuing CBDC programs. 

Mark of the Beast. The Beast Who Requires a ‘MARK.’ (7) The Infrared Vaccination QR Code SMART MARK. It’s a vaccine technology that uses a tattoo-like mechanism which injects invisible (infrared) quantum dot nanoparticles under the skin, when Bill Gates speaks of it he calls it a ‘patch’. At Davos yesterday he told CNBC that the ‘patch’ is almost ready, just waiting for AI to catch up to make it all work. The quantum dots can be arranged in the form of an invisible ‘QR’ Code and injected ‘under the skin, which then can be scanned very quickly by infrared means.

Gates said this about the new era of vaccines that are coming soon. Gates said that “COVID vaccines need to have longer duration, more coverage, and we’re going to change. Instead of using needles, we’ll use a little patch.” That ‘patch’ is the human implantable quantum dot microneedle vaccine delivery system.  Bill Gates, ‘GAVI’ and the World’s Vaccination Goals (start at 2:00 time stamp)

B. Believe Jesus is Lord. Believe that (7) Jesus Christ is who He claimed to (7) be; that He was both fully God (7) and fully man and that we are (7) saved through His death, burial, and resurrection. (7) Put your trust in Him as your (7) only hope of salvation. Become a son (7) or daughter of God by receiving Christ. (7777777) 7×7

. . . “That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (John 3:15-17). For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13).

C. Call upon His name, Confess (7) with your heart and with your lips (7) that Jesus is your Lord and Savior.

. . . “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10:9-10).

. . . “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” (John 1:8-10).

. . . “And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. (John 2:2).

. . . “In this was manifested the love of god toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.” (1 John 4:9, 14-15).

. . . “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.” (Romans 5:8-10).

. . . “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23).

. . . “Jesus saith unto them, I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6).

. . . “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth.” (Romans 1:16).

. . . “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” (Acts: 4:12).

. . . “Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth for there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 2:4-6).

. . . “For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 Thessalonians 5:9).

. . . “But as many as received him, to them gave the power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.” (John 1:12).

True Church / Bride of Christ Spared from God’s Wrath:

 Romans 5:8-10. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.”

Romans 12:19. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 1:10. And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

1 Thessalonians 5:9. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

Romans 8:35. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Jeremiah 30:7. Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be saved out of it.

Revelation 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
