App Lets User Touch Loved Ones From Afar

touchroomRandom iPhone App of the week: This app turns the phrase, “reach out and touch someone” to an advanced, technological level. Touch Room allows friends, relatives and loved ones to touch one another from faraway distances, using mobile devices. The concept is quite simple: two people enter a virtual room, each denoted by a circular touch point. When both touch points (or fingers) reach the same spot, the phone vibrates. See how the app works here. The app, created by GSP BETA Group, part of Goodby Silverstein & Partners, is available for free in the App Store.
