Senseg "Feel Screen"

Senseg has created a new type of touch screen. As touch screen is becoming more popular in technology, the the quality of touch screens are becoming more demanding.

Senseg has created something called the "Feel Screen", which is a special type of touch screen. What's so special about a touch screen? What if I told you that you can actually feel the textures that you see on your touch screen? Senseg has actually made that possible.

A video can be found here, for an example of the product.

If there are any physicists reading, allow me to explain how this works. The technology uses the principle of Coulomb's Force to emulate the sensation of touch. Coulomb's Law, for those who don't know, is simply the attraction between electrical charges.

They call this technology, Trixel™. By passing an ultra-low electrical current into the insulated electrode, Senseg's Trixel™, the proprietary charge driver can create a small attractive force to the skin of your finger. This force can create a variety of sensations from textured surfaces and edges, to vibrations and more. And while doing all of this, the technology is silent.

The Trixel™ itself is a ultra-thin durable coating on the touch screen that outputs tactile effects. This can be placed on almost any size of device and surface.
