Two amazing start-ups by the names of Ayotle and Digitas are on a mission to turn anything and everything into a touchscreen. They have partnered up to develop what they call AnyTouch. The company is based out of Paris and Mexico.
It uses special software and sensors to be able to create the effect, and the cool thing about it is that it works on any surface or objects. As the video demonstrates, with the AnyTouch you can control your TV with a swipe of your finger and even with still objects.
Beyond a cell phone or tablet, touchscreens and 3D sensors are making their way into our daily lives, and we are bound to see more of this technology evolve within the coming years.
