The mobile technology area tremendously advanced within a decade and now also new technology is replacing the remaining one day by day. We can't predict how mobile phones are going to change its faces in future, as some interesting new ideas are being developed and tested to execute these into successful products.
Today a new concept phone was demonstrated by the researchers of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany, which enables people to talk in the phone just through their lip movement. No need to talk loud, just mouthing the words you want to speak. According to them the technology behind this concept of converting the motion of your mouth into a synthesized speech, is based on electromyography in which, electrical activity of your muscles during the speech is recorded and also detect facial movement during the conversation. The movements are then tramsmitted into a laptop and then facial movements are converted into text format and then to vocal using a synthesizer.
This phone is meant for those who are unable to speak and for those who want to talk in a noisy environment or for those who want to continue their conversation even in a quiet situation like library.
Now its just a concept only, and it requires more than 9 electrodes to be attached to the face. But we can expect that additional research and development will make this technology to be integrated to your mobile phones in future.
