Researchers at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf in Germany and Johannes Kepler University Linz (JKU) in Austria have developed an electronic sensor that can simultaneously process both touchless and tactile stimuli. When applied to human skin, the sensor could provide a seamless interactive platform for virtual and augmented reality applications. The researchers said the sensor was conceived as an electronic counterpart to human skin, and could “massively amplify” the interaction of people and machines. Said JKU's Martin Kaltenbrunner, "A better interface between humans and machines can be built on this foundation."  .... '
