Posted on 02:46 by Unknown
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University are working on a way to use the skin as an input device, similar to the approach taken by Light Blue Optics.

Skinput is a method that allows the body to be appropriated for finger input using a novel, non-invasive, wearable bio-acoustic sensor, to be presented in April.
Devices with significant computational power and capabilities can now be easily
