Change your TV into 'Touchscreen' using Nokia N8

London, Sep 19: Nokia unveiled a prototype interface for its flagship

that can turn any HDMI-connected external display into a touchscreen.

World's largest mobile phone maker Nokia revealed the new technology at the Nokia World conference in London. The 'Plug and Touch' system allows users to transform any display into a touchscreen display.

Based on these finger movements, the application can let users pick selections and process the requests.
