- smallmancontrov 3y agoDo you mean non-heat infrared? It's probably not very controversial to say that all of our skin is quite good at detecting radiant heat.

- Andrex 3y agoFor about a year I could tell when my phone was about to ring in my pocket before the screen turned on. Something in the telemetry hardware stack whirring up made it feel a very very very near-imperceptibly tingly. But then I changed phones and it doesn't happen anymore. Or, lower chance, there was a software update. I believe it was the Pixel 3a.
- aaronax 3y agoBack in the flip phone days some people had little dongles hanging from their antennas that would light up seconds before the text chime went off. I guess it sensed the incoming transmission?
- usrusr 3y agoMust have listened to that little GSM handshake melody that used to be everywhere where speakers are connected to an active amp.
- usrusr 3y agoThe only thing controversial is that I should not have made that post here on hn. Actually it's so clearly against the rules that even this is not controversial, sorry.

- skulk 3y agoMaybe not the same thing but holding a finger 1cm away from your face between your eyebrows creates a very strange sensation.
