Summary:

Customers in shopping centres are having their every move tracked by a new type of surveillance that listens in on the whisperings of their mobile phones.

Spyeglass Screen Keeps Consumers In Touch

Summary:

Minneapolis firm Spyeglass has put a demo on YouTube showing how consumers can interact with a large touch screen.
