| Summary: | Touchless perception technology allows us to acquire information beyond the contact interfaces, making it ideal for scenarios where physical engagements are not possible. Unlike tactile devices, which have so far achieved impressive results, touchless strategies are fascinating yet underdeveloped. We envisage that touchless technologies could be powerful supplements to current haptics. In this Perspective, we include emerging touchless electronics, aiming to provide a broader and comprehensive picture toward artificial perceptual realm. We overview popular touchless protocols, sketch what could be detected by touchless probing, and summarize their latest spectacular achievements. In addition, we present the promises and challenges posed by touchless technologies and discuss possible directions for their future deployments. |
