LAS VEGAS, NEVADA (NEWS1130) – Imagine using your hands to control your tablet while you’re playing music.

It’s possible thanks to iRing, which has been debuted at the International Consumer Electronics Show.

“The iRing is the first motion censored type of device that they’re actual rings. As you move the screen forwards and backwards, you can actual control the groove, sound, or effects you’re playing,” explains Derrick Floyd with IK Multimedia.

“Think if you’re a DJ or hosting a party and want to move the music around, it’s actually like moving your body into the music and having fun at the same time,” he adds.

The iRing could be in stores as early as April.
