New Flex Touchscreen Interface developed by researchers

There is a new flex touchscreen interface now developed by some researchers at Osaka University. Take a look on the video below from Digital Info.



The principle of this new flexible touchscreen interface is just simple. It just treat the screen as elastic material, that is when you touch the screen and the content just squeeze as it moves at the edges of the screen in which you could still see other area in focus, rather than browsing it back just like the existing touchscreen nowadays. The video above demonstrated on Google Maps on large touchscreen. The researchers says it would just be applicable to phones and other touchscreen technology. It only means that it will be implemented soon and it is obviously possible.
