Google patent makes printed book interactive

Google Interactive book patentnIf the Storytelling Device for which Google obtained a patent gets to market it will be very simple to make a printed book interactive. A device the size of a hamburger projects images onto the page and emits sounds via the built-in loudspeakers. The images and sound can be activated by touching the pages. Image, sound and video can also be played via a screen, according to the patent. The sensors on the printed pages can be activated by electronics printed into the page or by the video camera of the Storytelling Device. Not only does it have a clever name, but the combination of printed and digital has a lot of promise and will definitely be inspiring some creative minds. If the device has a nice price, like Google Chromecase, success is ensured.
