Huawei’s Air‑Gesture‑Powered Rollable Phone? What’s the Scoop?
Hey tech lovers, grab your coffee – Huawei might just be cooking up a rollable phone that you can control with a simple swoosh of your hand. Let’s unpack the buzz.
Where the Idea Came From
Our source, LetsGoDigital, spotted a fresh patent filed by the Chinese giant. It spells out an air‑gesture control system that would let you power the display on or off by sliding your hand over the phone’s camera or a special sensor.
That sensor would read the direction of your swipe and either retract or expand the screen on a dime. Fancy that? Imagine folding your phone into a pocket because you did a little wave instead of fiddling with buttons.
How Speed Comes Into Play
There’s even a twist: the scrolling speed on the screen can be tweaked by waving a set number of fingers above the sensor. “One finger for slow, two for…you guessed it, faster,” the patent has the simple recipe to keep things interesting.
Not the Only One in the Roll‑and‑Roll Crew
Huawei isn’t the sole player in this arena. Earlier in the year, Samsung filed a trademark for “Galaxy Z Roll” with the EU Intellectual Property Office, hinting that they’re hot on the rollable‑screen trail.
And if you think you’ve heard it all, LG was rumored to be cooking up a phone that stretches from 6.8 inches to a whopping 7.4 inches. They even filed patents for a retractable display – a lot to make the good old “zoom in/out” feature feel like a sci‑fi prop.
What’s In The Future?
- Air‑gesture‑controlled rollable display.
- Customizable scrolling speed via finger count.
- Potentially a sleeker, pocket‑friendly device.
Will this ever hit the market? Time will tell. For now, keep rubbing your eyes and maybe try swiping your hand over your microwave; you never know where the tech wizard will look next!
