CHI2022 (Conference on Human Factors in Computing System) will soon unveil a new selfie camera lens to make your phone screen navigation more efficient.
While Apple and other smartphone makers focus on offering faster systems, better camera specs, notchless features, and other common enhancements, a group of researchers from Keio University, the Tokyo University of Technology, and Yahoo Japan decided to work on a different smartphone upgrade.
If you are also interested in their new selfie camera tech, then here are the details of the so-called ReflecTouch.

One of the innovations that will be unveiled is the new ReflecTouch selfie cam tech. This smartphone innovation can adjust your screen controls to best suit your current situation.
For the past few years, the smartphone screen interfaces have no functions that allow them to adjust their controls to suit their users' needs.
This means that the control buttons remain the same even when holding your device with one hand or two hands. Now, this is what the new ReflecTouch is trying to change.
How ReflecTouch Works
The new ReflecTouch selfie camera tech works by identifying the six different ways that users hold their smartphones. These are specifically with both hands, right hand, left hand, portrait mode, and horizontal mode.
The developers behind this new tech even posted a YouTube video to further explain how ReflecTouch works. First, you need to hold your smartphone using the six different methods mentioned above.
After that, the selfie camera will automatically detect your hand movement through your eyes' reflection.
Once it can check your hand gesture by looking at the reflected screen in your eyes, it can automatically adjust the control buttons according to how you hold the device.
Recently, the Android Window-syncing feature arrived. Before our weekday ended, some photos of the notchless iPhone 14 Pro were leaked.
