"To go beyond touch and create touchless 3D device control interface, Nokia decided to use Ultrasonic Transducers (USTs), arrayed around the perimeter of the display.

Ultrasonic transducers emit ultrasonic sound waves that propagate through air. When finger gets into the path of these waves, the signal is reflected back and detected by the transducer."

Those signals could easily be disrupted, with those emitters lying around the screen like that. Plus, this cannot be too accurate for finger tracing..
This technology is a bit unreliable if you ask me...
