Discovered the first patent describes a totally radical idea called "multi-touch detection and modulation proximity sensor" which is essentially a technology that will allow users to navigate on your iPhone without having to touch it.
This system would use photodiodes and other hardware proximity sensor connected to the current capabilities offered by 3D Touch technology already built into the famous iPhone.Allowing users to control their smartphone just by moving your fingers on the screen and press virtual buttons that will be created by infrared emitted from LEDs bounce back to the photodiodes. It is said that this innovative feature could also improve the device battery.
Although this is a very interesting and removed functionality of a science fiction movie, it is safer not be available on the iPhone 7 will be released this coming September 2016. Since, Apple has yet to launch 3D Touch in many devices and, according to rumors on the internet, the launch of this new touch technology could make it even more difficult.
The second patent was discovered, is based on user interaction, highlighted plans to introduce 3D Touch in the iPhone home button. This work organizing electrodes under the button that would connect when pressed and introduce new options depending on the amount of pressure exerted on them, very clever right?
The inclusion of this new technology massively impact the design of the iPhone, while most of the focus has been on functions that will add value to the world's most famous smartphone.
The fact introduce a button force-sensitive touch start, it could mean that a physical button is no longer needed and, in turn, could incorporate a flat surface with optical feedback, which is very curious considering that rumors about the iPhone 7 have speculated that would come with a new screen edge to edge.
