There is an interesting news for all of you, now you can turn your TV into a touchscreen tab with Touchjet Wave and that too at a very affordable price. Those movements and touches are then translated digitally, registering touches wherever the user has pressed down on the display. However, applications could include playing video games with one’s family, or giving a presentation at the office. The possibilities are endless if you think deep enough. Not the latest release, but it gets the job done.

The Wave uses Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to connect to a mobile app which turns a person’s phone into a handy remote control for flicking through photos, or choosing apps and TV channels. On top of KitKat sits a custom Touchjet UI, and the great thing here is that it can even run apps from the Google Play Store, so you can rest assured that you can post those insanely important Facebook updates right from your TV. It has WiFi (802.11 b/g/n) that allows its users to seamlessly browse and download content from the web onto their TV screens.

At the time of writing, the WAVE has just blown past its $100K goal after only one day. I know you may not believe it, but it’s true! Do you think such a device has a space in our living room or office? Requiring a display range of 20 inches on the low end to 60 inches maximum, capable of 720p/1080p at 50/60 Hz, or a 4k resolution at 24, 25, or 30 Hz, the TouchJet WAVE is a versatile utility compatible with many different screens.

The Touchjet Wave clips onto the top of sets with a screen size of between 20 and 80 inches and uses infrared sensors to detect finger movements on the surface
