Strange Gel Remote Concept by Panasonic

This may be the strangest remote control we’ve ever seen. With the push of a button, this remote becomes rigid and ready for use.

Left undisturbed, the remote will go limp and slumber peacefully. But should a human hand approach, sensors inside alert it to the imminent touch. It stops breathing, grows rigid – the light from within is extinguished.

nobody finds this kind of disturbing to have your remote grow hard when you rub it?

Of course there is another application that will could be economically viable.
