The Magic Touch

Meet my niece Ami-chan. She lives in Hiroshima and she will be two years old in August. She is a happy little girl just learning to talk, and becoming more and more independent every day since she learned how to walk last year. She reminded me last month when I saw her that she is also a very special little girl. I discovered that Ami-chan has magic fingers! YES, the ones she is showing you in the photo. With her magic fingers she can do tricks like fully operate a touch screen display! It’s true I saw her do it on my tablet !

She swipes the screen to scroll through photos in the album. She taps the photo that she wants to see (usually of her!) to open it. She pinches and spreads her fingers to zoom in and out on photos. And I am willing to bet that the next time I see her she will be typing email with her magic fingers using the on screen key board!

OK I admit that Ami-chan doesn’t have magic fingers. But watching her last month reminded me that her generation was born with the “magic” of touch screen technology and mobile devices. She is so comfortable using a smart phone or a tablet that she doesn’t even think about what she is doing, she just does it. That’s exactly the way it should be…Easy to learn, and easy to use. Because the display technology has become so easy, more schools are using tablets and e-readers as teaching tools in the class room.

There is one more thing that Ami-chan reminded me about last month. Right now she is too young to know or care, but our Sun-Tec lamination equipment plays a very big role in helping to bring that touch screen display technology to millions of little kids just like her all around the world. Seeing the look on her face when she swipes the screen (with her magic fingers!) and finally finds a picture of her with “Grandpa” and “Grandma” makes me very happy and proud of what we do.
