Senseg created the first sensory touch screen

Senseg is the Japanese company that has managed to create the first working prototype of a touch screen with sensory function.

More specifically, this screen surface can play a variety of physical sensation to touch, imitating the texture of objects on the screen.

Screen named "Feel Screen" works by applying electrostatic fields that are felt to the touch and also read some real tactilesensations. According to the company producing the effect is achieved by creating and controlling a small attractive forces,occurring between the surface of the screen and the user's fingertips. Simulation technology allows a wide range of textures and effects such as rough surfaces, edges and vibration.

Commercial versions of screen "Feel Screen" are ready for mass production even during the next year, but the first devicesincorporating such a screen will appear in stores probably not earlier than 2013.
