The 'Glamos' virtual touchscreen interface is an aftermarket technology solution for consumers who are seeking to upgrade their existing home entertainment setup or workstation. The device works by being paired with your choice of [non-touchscreen display](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flexbar) and will immediately go to work enabling users to [control the interface with their hands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/universal-wearable-controller). The unit sits back from the display to not require users to actually touch the screen itself and enjoy access from afar.

The 'Glamos' virtual touchscreen interface utilizes LiDAR technology and is inexpensively priced to make it as applicable for as many consumers as possible. The compact design of the device means it won't take up too much additional space in living rooms, office spaces or on desktops.
