Still Waters Posted October 21, 2019 #1 Share Posted October 21, 2019 An artificial skin that wraps around a mobile phone can "feel the user's grasp", researchers have said. The spongey-looking jacket, created using two layers of silicone, has the ability "to detect tickling, caressing, even twisting and pinching", they added. Emojis can be created, based on how a handset is being held. The idea is to echo natural human communication, of which touch is often an important part. https://news.sky.com/story/the-phone-skin-that-can-feel-the-users-grasp-11841066 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+and-then Posted October 21, 2019 #5 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Hmmm... let me get this straight. This thing seems to have the potential to record given emotional states at specific times and keep a record of them? What could go wrong with that? Sounds like a wonderful idea, for Big Brother's plans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
