A group of analysts has manufactured a model telephone case that emulates human skin. 

A video discharged by colleagues demonstrates them utilizing it to control a handset by squeezing, pressing and pushing it to zoom in or out, and complete different capacities. 

It could likewise be utilized later on to connect with a virtual symbol. 

Task pioneer Marc Teyssier said he comprehended why a few people thought that it was unpleasant. 

"I do believe it's frightening - I get it," he told the inews71. 

"We are not used to human touch on objects. This task has caused individuals to think about what innovation is and why this is unpleasant."
