Sylvie Noel at Population of One blogs a haptic feedback system for touchscreens that could bring greater screen real estate to mobile devices. The system is from a company called Immersion that’s been making haptic feedback systems for gaming consoles and similar stuff. Their VibeTonz system can now provide tactile feedback when you hit a “button” represented on a screen. That means the entire surface of your mobile device could one day be a screen, with “keyboard” elements popping up only as needed. Nice idea.
