Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University are experimenting with forward-looking OLED panels that can physically change shape to simulate tactile buttons for text entry and more. The tech involves the use of miniaturized hydraulic pumps that move fluid and are individually controllable. They can be turned on or off like pixels…
