It's what Microsoft and Nokia are reportedly calling off-the-glass gesture recognition. The next generation of the smartphone operating system and the handsets that will use it will also feature a personal assistant -- to challenge Apple's Siri and Android's Google Now -- currently codenamed Cortana after the AI character in the "Halo" series of Xbox games. According to @evleaks, who also revealed the handsets' codenames, Microsoft and Nokia are expected to demonstrate these features for the first time at the Mobile World Conference which will take place in Barcelona, Spain next February.
