Today, according to the Korean media "ETNews", Apple is expected to use multi-hovering (also known as multi-hovering) technology in 2019, users can use this technology to input without touching the screen. Incited insiders, Apple plans to commercialize the technology in 2019.
According to the report, this technology allows users to use three or three fingers that are 50mm away from the screen for touch. The user can zoom in and zoom out to perform specific commands.
The touch operation of the smartphone is widely implemented by capacitive technology, which works by recognizing the current change when the finger touches. The suspended control technology is based on this technology, and the sensitivity of the recognition is amplified to achieve Identification of current changes in a non-contact state. This technique has been limited by finger-to-screen distance (30mm) in the past, and there are also faults such as ghosting that are difficult to commercialize.
Apple hopes to break through the limitations of this technology to introduce it to provide a new user experience. The report said that this technology is expected to be related to the augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) that Apple is developing. Apple It is expected that the TOF sensor will be introduced on the back of the iPhone in 2019. The TOF technology can acquire the distance measurement and the three-dimensional shape of the object. After combining the TOF technology with the VR and AR, it can bring a feeling of touching the virtual object.
