This technology would allow users to interact with their devices through thin air.This is for not only mobiles but also the devices that have touch screen interface.

“The need for power-hungry, specialized hardware has kept such technology from mobile devices — problems that 3dim has now rectified"Andrea Colaco says.She  also said her prototype only demands a few mill watts of additional power from the phone-about one-seventh of the amount used by a standard smartphone camera
