Researchers have demonstrated what they call the « first active contactless attack against capacitive touchscreens. »
GhostTouch, as it’s called, « uses electromagnetic interference (EMI) to inject fake touch points into a touchscreen without the need to physically touch it, » a group of academics from Zhejiang University and Technical University of Darmstadt said in a new research paper.
