A future “kinetic device” from Nokia lets you scroll through music collections or photo albums by twisting a flexible display, or zoom in/out by bowing it inward or outward, Mashable reports from the Nokia World show.
One version of the device could be based on carbon nanotubes (they change resistance as they are flexed), says CNET.
