It is artificially intelligent and can recognize the device owner despite different hairstyles, beards, glasses, and so on. The face scanner can also find an emoji which mimicks the users facial expression.

Summary | In an interview with the Swisscom director Urs Schaeppi, the future and past of mobile technologies are discussed. Schaeppi is convinced that interconnectedness of electronic devices is key when thinking about future developments in mobile technologies. An example would be connecting smartphone with one’s car so that while driving, one could verbally ask the smartphone for directions which then communicates the information to the car navigation system. Language commands and better and broader internet connection are the main priorities for mobile communication.
