Hands on with Gestures by Qualcomm for the Snapdragon S4 [Video] 4

Qualcomm was on hand at CTIA this year and they were showing off their new application called Gestures. This really isn't anything totally new since Sony is introducing something similar with the Sola. I have a feeling we're going to see a lot of this from all device manufacturers towards the end of the year. I don't see a huge need for this except for maybe the kitchen when you're browsing a cookbook with messy hands, so it's nice to have the option. Qualcomm showcased this on a prototype tablet, and it's still in the development stage. They ‘re targeting a late 2012 launch in the Google Play Store, and of course it will only be compatible with Snapdragon S4 devices.

It's been a great CTIA this year. In case you missed anything, checkout our full coverage here.

Robert lives in upstate New York where he was born and raised. Technology was always his passion. His first computer was a Radio Shack TRS80 Color that used a cassette tape to save programs, and his first laptop was a Toshiba T1200FB that sported a CGA greyscale screen and two 720kb floppy drives (no hardrive). From the early 90’s through late 2011, he only owned Motorola phones starting with the MircroTAC all the way through to the Droid X. He broke that streak when he bought the Galaxy Nexus. Now he's sporting a Galaxy Note 4, and absolutely loves it. He has a wonderful wife and a 6 year old son. In his free time he enjoys sports, movies, TV, working out, and trying to keep up with the rapid fast world of technology.
