Not sure I understand the downvotes with no comment...? Maybe a video is more convincing... https://youtu.be/JelhR2iPuw0?t=17s

Or this from BMW....https://techcrunch.com/2016/12/15/bmws-holoactive-touch-in-c...

Or Ultrahaptics... https://www.ultrahaptics.com/

The downvotes are probably because your proposed solution is ridiculously overengineered. Knobs have worked well for centuries.
