Samsung’s Visual Gesture Interaction Patent
Samsung recently filed a patent for visual gestures with a cell phone. Unlike the iPhone where the gestures take place on the touch screen, the patent uses the phone’s built in camera to recognize preset motions. While it’s a clever idea, imagine seeing someone “speaking” sign language to their phone. Interacting with the phone this way may seem strange in public and it remains to be seen how users will react to this feature if it ever makes it onto an actual phone.
