Mitsubishi is demonstrating a new piece of touchscreen technology that works with multiple sensors to detect not only when you touch the screen, but when you get near it and the speed of which you touch it.

Of course, it is still just in prototype form (currently a 5.7-inch capacitive VGA display), but Mitsubishi says it’s based on panels that are already on the market, which should help ease development and reduce costs. Not surprisingly, Mitsubishi also says that “it will first be used for our products,” although it naturally didn’t say exactly what those product might be.
