Apple Patent Addresses Texting-Walking Risk

Texting while walking can be dangerous, but Apple could be aiming to make it less so, judging from a patent awarded Thursday by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Apple has found an innovative way to use an electronic communication device's camera to continuously capture and present video images as background within a text-messaging session, its patent application 20140085334, titled "Transparent Texting," suggests. The device's rear-facing camera could be used to make it appear the user was looking through a transparent screen.
