What
if buttons could morph out of the surface of your device? Tactus
Technology has developed a new tactile user interface for touchscreen
devices that does exactly that. Tactus provides a new dimension to
touchscreens by enabling real, physical buttons that rise up from the
surface on demand, and then recede back into the screen, leaving a
perfectly flat, transparent surface when gone.
In a press release posted yesterday, Tactus Technology announced the first public demonstration of an ‘appearing and disappearing haptic user interface’. It is the world’s first deformable tactile surface that creates dynamic physical buttons that users can actually see and feel in advance of entering data into the device.
Tactus uses microfluidic technology to create physical buttons that rise from the touchscreen to give users the experience of operating a physical keyboard. When no longer needed, the buttons recede back into the touchscreen, leaving no trace of their presence.
