Two finger-touch or multi-touch? Users do not have to decide. It can affect anywhere, says French start-up Sensitive Object, a touch-screen technology that goes beyond the traditional area.The company “Multi Touch Anywhere” platform based on the recognition of sound waves propagated in an object when the user touches it.

A user based on a glass surface creates a pattern of sound waves, the acoustic signature only for the location of touch, says Sensitive Object. The company, which was launched in 2003, says she has found a way around this acoustic signature of the user’s every action. A pane of glass with two piezoelectric sensors, similar to what occurs in some of the new flat speaker technology is used to the sound waves and their acoustic signature.

The multi-touch platform, Anywhere can be various materials such as glass, aluminum and plastic, says Sensitive Object.

The company has not disclosed how much its new technology costs. For now it is at a very competitive price. ” The platform is Windows 7 compatible and offers handwriting recognition.

Sensitive Object hopes to make its technology on mobile phones, Netbook, laptops, PCs and portable gaming terminals. For some developers, the technology can be very useful to expand, as the users with their devices, says the report. For example, in the case of a cellphone, a game some may require on a part of the phone, instead of just the screen.
