While Apple was announcing the game-changer iPad, Nokia was also letting us peak behind the curtain of future mobile technologies. It’s about a technology named “Mobile Radar” which seems quite promising with endless possibilities.
In the video shown below, you’ll see researcher Jani Ollikainen use his hand to adjust the music player’s volume, without ever touching the hardware.

In the second demo, you’ll see fellow researchers Terhi Rautiainen and Risto Kaunisto measure the distance, speed, and direction of a human walking.
