You know absolutely that you have switched off your mobile phone before going into the theatre / wedding / class / cinema and nothing could be more surprising or embarrassing than when your ringtone starts playing unexpectedly. In these circumstances it is ironic that most of us will suddenly have difficulty in fumbling for our phone in our pocket or bag and switching if off. Even if in reality we are able to react quickly and efficiently, in our panic it always feels that minutes have elapsed before the first sound and final silence.

So consider how much easier it would be if we only had to move our hand in a gesture in order to silence our phone. That is now becoming possible thanks to a new mobile phone innovation that is being implemented in Germany. Deutsche Telekom has developed software that will allow you to control your phone by moving around a small magnet that can be worn as a ring or attached to your wrist.

The magnet attracts the compass sensor on your phone; and nowadays a large number of smart phone models are equipped with compasses. This new system is continually scans the local magnetic field to see if there are any sudden changes and to establish wheter these changes are the result of deliberate gestures you are making.

For instance, if you are using your phone to read a book or a document, then you can turn the pages by movong your hand from right to left as though you were turning a real page; you can end a phone call by moving your hand sharply in a downwards direction; or you can use gestured to zoom in and zoom out of an image on your screen.

The technology still needs some further development and so far it still makes mistakes; only 90% of gestures achieve their desired results. However the device’s developers are confident that they will overcome their difficulties.

Another area that is receiving attention is the incorporation of touch sensitive pads on various parts of the phone, such as on the back and on the sides. Some of these sensors are becoming so sensitive that they are able to detect the angle of their users’ fingers as they touch the screen, so that different angles can have different meanings.
