Windows 10 Mobile's front-facing camera will include a new Face tracking feature

According to a report published today, the latest version of the front-facing camera build for Windows 10 Mobile, 5.38.2004, comes with support for Face tracking. The feature recognizes when the camera is focused on a face, and keeps it inside a constant frame. This helps the subject stay in focus even when he or she is moving around. At the same time, the icon for the camera has been updated to make the camera app easier to discover.

Just yesterday, we told you that the latest Technical Preview build of Windows 10 Mobile seems to include a native app that allows users to record both sides of a phone call. With speculation that Microsoft could be close to a major write-off related to its purchase of Nokia Devices and Services, the software giant is feverishly working on including a number of new features in Windows 10 Mobile.

Windows 10 will be launched on July 29th, although the mobile version of the OS won't see the light of day until September.
