Californian start-up Tactus has developed a sheet of transparent buttons that rise up out of a touch screen and disappear, the Daily Mail reported.

The company claims that the sheet only takes up the same amount of room as the layer of transparent glass found in current touch screens.

The technology could be used in tablets, phones and remote controls. It could even allow for touch screens to be played with the same precision that people use to play musical instruments with. （點擊英國《每日郵報》網站查看原文）

未來手機將有隱形鍵盤

?????? 據英國《每日郵報》報道，美國加州一家名為“觸覺”的創業公司開發了一款透明鍵盤按鈕——需要使用的時候，鍵盤可以從手機觸摸屏中升起來，不用的時候就會消失。

?????? 該公司表示，這一層鍵盤僅僅藏在普通手機觸摸屏幕的透明玻璃層中。

?????? 這種技術可以被應用在平板電腦、手機和遙控器中。它還能夠在觸摸屏幕上演奏出如樂器般精準的音樂。
