Posted on Jun 3, 08 08:12 AM PDT

Synaptics have announced the general OEM/ODM availability of their proximity sensors that ought to see action outside of Microsoft’s Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 Bluetooth Keyboard in the near future. This is a unique proposition, as the technology is smart enough to recognize human presence which can then be linked to various controls such as adjusting the backlight for the perfect setting. Take for instance, Microsoft's mentioned keyboard - it enters standby mode to save power whenever the user moves away. With a new digital photo frame by Synaptics utilizing the same technology, it will definitely improve battery life while boasting proximity-controlled touch sensitive buttons to impress ordinary folk.
