"Apple announced on Tuesday the new iPhone 5S will include a Touch ID fingerprint sensor, allowing users to unlock their device with the touch of a finger.\nThe new technology reads your fingerprint at a very detailed level. The capacitive sensor is 170 microns thin with 500 ppi resolution and it scans sub-epidermal skim layers. It will replace the need for a lock screen. \nSEE ALSO: Apple Reveals iPhone 5S\n\nNot only will this be a huge step forward in smartphone protection, it can also be used to make iTunes purchases. Instead of typing in a password every time you buy a song or app, pressing your fingerprint against the scanner will bypass that step.\n\nThis ultra-thin sensor lives on top of the tactile touch home button. It will be able to read multiple fingerprints, in case the iPhone is shared.\nApple also cited research that about half of smartphone users do not have a pass code set up on their device.\nFor a full look at the new iPhone 5 and its features, click here.\n\n\nApple's iPhone 5S\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\niPhone 5S\nThe new device comes in three colors. \n\nImage: Nina Frazier, Mashable\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\niPhone 5S Specs\nPhilip W.
