Apple's tablet to have 3D navigation system?
We reported back in December that Apple had submitted some patents for 3D Operating System navigation. It turns out that they’ve also been looking at 3D multi-touch as a way of navigating a multi-touch tablet/iPhone. The Baltimore Sun (via PED) dug up a patent from last month (#20090303231, Dec. 10, 2009 to be exact) on just such an idea.
[0034]The device supports a variety of applications, such as one or more of the following: a game application, a telephone application, a video conferencing application, an e-mail application, an instant messaging application, a blogging application, a photo management application, a digital camera application, a digital video camera application, a web browsing application, a digital music player application, and/or a digital video player application.
If this patent comes to fruition, the next iPhone/iPod/tablet interface might be nothing like anything we’ve seen before, and it could perhaps explain why we’ve been hearing the possibility of a “new type of interaction” to accompany the tablet.
