Turn your body into an interactive touchscreen
March 4, 2010

According to an article in the New Scientist, researchers at Carnegie Mellon University (Chris Harisson) along with Microsoft's lab (Dan Morris and Desney Tan) claim to be able to turn your skin into a touchscreen. Innovatively called â€˜Skinput' (a combination of the words â€˜skin' and â€˜input'), it uses a bio-acoustic sensing array in combination with a wrist-mounted pico-projector to turn your arm into a display and input device, without any implantation.
