Anyone who's struggled with fingers skating over today's touchscreens may be in for a relief - future generations of phones and tablets could offer real, transparent buttons that pop up out of the screen on demand.
Californian start-up Tactus has developed a sheet of transparent buttons that rise up out of a touchscreen and disappear.The company claims that the sheet only takes up the same amount of room as the layer of transparent glass in current touchscreens.
The technology could be used in tablets, phones and remote controls - and could even allow for touchscreens that can be played with the same precision that people use musical instruments. Tactus describes its technology as a 'world first' that aims to address the shortcomings of touchscreen control.
Truth is, there really aren't too many exciting things happening around me right now ( still mourning my friends who died in the Dana plane crash ). Just make do with this piece of technology news
