After touchscreen, now breath-controlled cell phones
London: Just when you thought you have heard everything about futuristic technology, hear this, an American company is developing breath controlled technology for cell phone. This revolutionary technology, Sensawaft, developed by Zyxio, could soon aid hands-free mobile phones apart from other gadgets, according to ANI. "You can move a cursor or character around a screen with as much accuracy as a finger moving a mouse," said Celine Vignal, the Co-founder of the company to the Telegraph. She added: "We think the possibilities are endless. It even has potential for the military and factory assembly workers, who need to use both their hands continually, but would benefit from another functionality. "And with video games, just imagine playing a Harry Potter game, and blowing to cast a spell. It would be great." Sensawaft is supported with microelectromechanical systems involving tiny chips that can be embedded in other devices, such as a video game or hands-free mobile phone headset. The users basically need to blow on the screen to use applications.
