Tobii Validated for Windows Hello Login, Announces Support for Facial Recognition

STOCKHOLM & REDMOND, WA — December 16, 2015 — Tobii (http://www.tobii.com/), the
global leader in eye-tracking, in collaboration with Microsoft Corp., today
announced that Tobii’s eye-tracking platforms support facial recognition for
Windows Hello (http://www.tobii.com/xperience/hello/), providing consumers with
simpler, faster and more secure logins. Tobii’s devices are the only eye
-tracking platforms that support Windows Hello, empowering device manufacturers
with both Windows 10-ready biometric authentication and eye-tracking
functionality for notebooks, Ultrabooks, desktops, and peripherals, all on the
same sensor.

The Windows Hello biometric functionality relies on images provided by Tobii’s
sensor to work with Microsoft face recognition algorithms. Built into Windows
10, these algorithms determine the identity of the user, making it possible to
securely login to Windows devices. Tobii’s technology makes it possible for
Windows Hello to work in a variety of lighting conditions and even in the dark.

Available now for peripheral eye trackers on the Tobii IS3 platform, including
Tobii EyeX and SteelSeries Sentry devices, facial recognition support for
Windows Hello is intended to be standard on all future Tobii eye tracking
platforms, including the recently announced Tobii IS4 platform with Tobii
EyeChip™ (http://www.tobii.com/group/news-media/press-releases/tobii-unveils
-next-generation-eye-tracking-platform-targeting-consumer-devices/).

Tobii’s Windows Hello support illustrates yet another way in which device
manufacturers can expect to deliver enhanced consumer experiences with Tobii’s
technology. When you sit in front of your PC you’re automatically logged in,
just by being there. Tobii’s platforms now provide even greater value on a
single sensor by delivering both facial recognition and exciting new user
experiences with eye-tracking.

“Technology has a fundamental duty to understand humans better and improve their
daily lives. With Windows Hello, a person never needs to remember their password
to log in,” said Oscar Werner, president of Tobii Tech. “Microsoft’s interest to
make Windows Hello work with Tobii eye-tracking devices is a testament to the
value, both now and in the future, of our joint ability to enhance the Windows
experience for consumers.”

For those interested in exploring the next generation of simple, password-free
logins today, Tobii’s Windows Hello support can be introduced to existing
Windows 10 compatible PCs with the addition of the Tobii EyeX
Controller (http://www.tobii.com/xperience/products/).

Tobii’s Windows Hello support was developed by Tobii Tech, a business unit of
Tobii.
