  • As the devices have become smaller and hand-held additions physical phenomena have been enabled including:
  1. Sound that was coordinated with the display or used to get the user's attentions.
  2. Haptics like vibration which should be used to get the user's attention when the sound source was disabled.
  3. Input from orientation, shaking and motions made with the fingers on the display screen or else where.
  4. Location from either satellites or cell-phone towers.
  5. Radios for NFC, BLE or WiFi.
