I just saw post claiming synaptics is going to bring force touch displays for Android... So I was just thinking about that, I came up with this.
All water proof phones(and some other phones) has a pressure sensor inside them.
For Xperia Z series phones you can test the pressure sensor from service menu. The harder you press, larger the pressure change.
So I was wondering, can we actually mod current androids to respond to abrupt - large pressure changes while touch position is taken into consideration?
A small pressure change means a normal touch, a large change (like 3-5) would mean a press and this + normal touch location.
Can this mimic the Huawei / apples force touch screens? Since its almost the same thing, touch location + change in pressure. We could have multiple levels of touch or just 2 levels, a touch and a press!
