Scientists at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have recently developed a technology that allows users to turn e-book pages like paper books.

The technology called 'Smart E-Book Readers' allows consumers to own smartphones and tablets to easily browse the pages of an e-book or browse through similar content or activities. When reading books, making reading more convenient and true.

With Intelligent Reader System, users can easily flip through e-book pages

Unlike current technology and user interfaces, which typically only recognize the movement of the fingertip within the screen, the Smart E-Book System is capable of identifying and manipulating finger movements. Even when beyond the screen, so it is easy to flip the pages from the boot screen without entering any function keys or touching the screen.

Marking allows the user to retrieve pages viewed or unread pages. In addition, the 'multifunctional' system has the ability to recognize drag time, finger pressure, and finger gestures.

"I hope the new technology will contribute to e-book reading as well as contribute a small part to the effort to become a leader in mobile application technologies for Korea." Said Howon Lee, head of research.
