Gizmag Comment Feed: Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad http://www.gizmag.com Always thought your skin was more than just a device to keep your insides tucked in neatly and out of harms’ way? Well, you were right. Chris Harrison has developed Skinput, a way in which your skin can become a touch screen device or your fingers buttons on a MP3 controller. Harrison says that as electronics get smaller and smaller they have become more adaptable to being worn on our bodies, but a couple of drawbacks are that the monitor and keypad/keyboard have to be big enough for us to operate the equipment. This can defeat the purpose of small devices but with the clever acoustics and impact sensing software, Harrison and his team can give your skin the same functionality as a keypad. Add a pico projector attached to an arm band, and your wrist becomes a touch screen.en gizmag.com Comment on 'Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad' by Facebook User http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-62026 http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-62026 Thu, 02 Jun 2011 00:40:19 -0500 Comment on 'Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad' by Facebook User http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-50905 http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-50905 Sat, 26 Feb 2011 01:33:47 -0600 Comment on 'Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad' by Michael Seffren http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-45643 http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-45643 Fri, 14 Jan 2011 01:08:48 -0600 Comment on 'Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad' by froginapot http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-17695 http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-17695 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 08:53:28 -0500 Comment on 'Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad' by Facebook User http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-17374 http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-17374 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 08:49:13 -0600 Comment on 'Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad' by Leonard Dorcean http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-17077 http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-17077 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 16:35:50 -0600 Comment on 'Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad' by Facebook User http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-17047 http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-17047 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 11:50:45 -0600 Comment on 'Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad' by Dionysios Vasilakis http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-16975 http://www.gizmag.com/skinput-body-touchscreen-keypad/14408/#comment-16975 Tue, 09 Mar 2010 14:53:01 -0600 Comment on 'Skinput turns your hand into a touchscreen and your fingers into a keypad' by Mohammad R.
