Finger Touching Wearable Mobile Device

Raven 01-11-2007

Alot of people these days think they can text on there phones so fast. Thinking they got the fastest thumbs in the west. Well time to put your touchpad where you keyboard is.


While it looks as bizarre as it sounds the Finger Touching mobile interface concept from Samsung is another approach to the ‘typing on the go without a full-size keyboard’ problem. A simple loop device with a small screen is worn around the wrist which also includes a laser emitter capable of projecting a bright keyboard across your hand.

Using your fingers (except the thumb) the Finger Touching device recreates the standard 3×4 keypad we’re all accustomed to from mobile phones. However each number/alphanumeric set of characters appears on a different section of your fingers and presumably the device worn on your wrist is capable of telling when any of the virtual buttons have been pressed. The virtual keypad idea is a great idea especially since it’s literally non-existent when not in use but something tells me we may never see this concept come to fruition.

That is a neato invention.

However I think I could see this getting broken a lil too easy.

Its convience but not at its best.

There is no way someone will type faster on this thing then a normal keyboard. Get real. I hate when people say they can text fast. Only if its like a 3 word sentence maybe.
