Yes, Android?s New Face Unlock Feature Can Be Fooled With A Photo
Within minutes of our big ol' Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) demo video going online, one question barraged my inbox: could the new facial recognition-based unlocking feature be tricked with a photo? Google's response on this was anything but solid. They kind of tip-toed around it when I asked, saying just that the feature "will only get better". Meanwhile, Google's Tim Bray implied that they'd most certainly thought of that. At long last, someone has managed to answer the question with video proof. Turns out: Yep, photos work.
