Squishy（易壓扁的）Cellphones (大哥大) add a buzz（震動(dòng)聲） to calls
Vibrating rubber could be the next big thing in mobile communications. They allow people to communicate by squishing the phone to transmit __1__along with their spoken words. According to a research team at the MIT Medical Lab in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the idea will make __2__ more fun.
Many mobile phones can already be made to vibrate __3__ ring when you do not want people to know you are getting a call. But these vibrations, __4__ by a motor spinning an eccentric weight inside the device, are too crude for subtle communication, says Angela Chang of the lab’s Tangible Media Group. “They’re __5__ on or off,” she says.
But when you grip Chang’s prototype latex cellphone, your fingers and thumb wrap around five __6__ speakers. They vibrate __7__ your skin around 250 times per second. Beneath these speakers sit pressure sensors, so you can transmit vibration as well as __8__ it. When you squeeze with a finger, a vibration signal is transmitted __9__ your caller’s corresponding finger. Its __10__ depends on how hard you squeeze.
She says that within a few minutes of being given __11__ the phones, students were using the vibration feature to add emphasis to what they were saying or to interrupt the other speaker. Over time, people even began to transmit their __12__ kind of ad hoc “Morse code”, which they would repeat back to show they following what they other person was saying. “It was pretty easy to communicate, though we didn’t specifically pre-arrange __13__,” says David Milovich, one of the students who tried out the device,
Change thins “vibralanguages” could __14__ for the same reason as texting: sometimes people want to communicate something __15__ everyone nearby knowing what they are saying. “And imagine actually being able to shake someone’s hand when you close a business seal,” she says.
