This technology is from Disney Research Hub. I guess Disney could use this technology in their theme parks somehow. Here is what the research department say about the technology:
Touché proposes a novel Swept Frequency Capacitive Sensing technique that can not only detect a touch event, but also recognize complex configurations of the human hands and body. Such contextual information significantly enhances touch interaction in a broad range of applications, from conventional touchscreens to unique contexts and materials.
As one of the comments said, this technology could even be used for death people using sign language to communicate with the hearing community. Have the device hooked up to the death person’s hands and an audio output that corresponds to the sign language. For instance, if the death person signs “hello” then a computer-like device could say the word “hello.”
Interesting technology.
