A peek into Nokia’s research labs reveals some intriguing possibilities on how we will interact with our devices in the future.
Embedded chips could help phones “smell,” electronically stretchable skins could change the shape of devices and make them fit like gloves on your hand, and gestures could mean the end of pecking and hunting on mobile displays.
Some future touchscreen displays might even give you tactile feedback — using tiny electrical shocks.
So while Nokia may be a bit behind the curve in developing touchscreen interfaces, its R&D department is not standing still.
Check out the five big ideas that are currently under development at Nokia Research Center.
