Imagine you are in a busy meeting, and your cellphone rings. Of course you can't answer, but you can't just reject it either. What happened then? You just rejected it anyway. Not now. Obertrhur's technology called SIMSense enables you to give instruction to your cellphone just by moving your cellphone, regardless the type of your cellphone.
No it's not accelerometer. It is something better. You can control your phone by shaking it. Because it's the SIM that's equipped with the motion sensor, and not your phone. One application example is in the aforementioned situation. You can just shake off your cellphone, and it automatically sends a polite rejection sms. Or you can access menu by tapping your cellphones, and shaking it also.
Sounds wonderful? Check out more here. Some of the highlights quoted from prnews :- Busy call: simply by shaking or tapping the handset the busy recipient
of the call can send a predetermined text message to the caller
informing that they are busy and will call back later
- Menu selection: the user can locate the menu of services and
applications just by shaking or tapping the handset
- Body fall: in an emergency (such as a person falling down) if the
handset is close to the human body, the smart application is able to send
a predetermined text message to a predetermined point of contact, such as
relatives or dial for an ambulance
Though it will take some time before network carriers adopt it, rest assure they will. With premium price perhaps. But this is an interesting technology, and may help disabled people tremendously.
