### 1. Biometric Hardware Authentication (FaceID / TouchID / BiometricPrompt 👁️)

```typescript
import * as LocalAuthentication from 'expo-local-authentication';

export async function authenticateWithBiometrics(): Promise<boolean> {
    const hasHardware = await LocalAuthentication.hasHardwareAsync();
    const isEnrolled = await LocalAuthentication.isEnrolledAsync();

if (!hasHardware || !isEnrolled) return false;

const result = await LocalAuthentication.authenticateAsync({
        promptMessage: "Authenticate to unlock Rishabh Ki Kaksha",
        fallbackLabel: "Use PIN / Password",
        disableDeviceFallback: false
    });

return result.success;
}
```

### 2. High-Performance Camera (VisionCamera Frame Processors 📷)

React Native VisionCamera JSI Frame Processors ke zariye direct Camera hardware feed se 60 FPS real-time QR Code scanning aur AI Face Mesh ML models run karta hai!

### 4. Interview Ke 3 Sawal Is Topic Se

1. **APNs (Apple Push Notification service) Device Token aur FCM (Firebase) token me kya relation hai?** -> iOS devices par FCM background me APNs bridge token use karke Apple gateways ke through notifications deliver karta hai.
2. **Background Geolocation tracking battery drain kaise optimize karta hai?** -> Significant Motion API (Geofencing + Accelerometer movement detection) use karke jab device stationary ho tab GPS polling pause karna.
3. **Frame Processor Worklet VisionCamera me kya hota hai?** -> Camera frame buffer ka direct C++ memory pointer jo bina frame copy kiye native ML engine me pass hota hai.
