Apple's multi-touch system definitely revolutionized the world of touch screen displays, but the fruity company has recently filed a patent for a multi-touch system that incorporates both voice and visual data into the control system itself. Apple figured out that there are some actions which will perform better using other senses instead of plain old touch, which will probably be the next logical improvement for the Nintendo DS Lite that already has a microphone, although the use of it in games are rather limited and not exactly essential to date for most titles. It is interesting to note that the proposed technology is supposedly smart enough to intelligently recognize the user's intentions thanks to cameras. A consumer electronics device that knows it is frustrating you by not performing up to par? I like the sound of that.
