“Skinput”, they’re calling it:

Tapping on different parts of your arm creates different kinds of vibrations depending on the amount and shape of bones, tendons and muscle in that specific area. Skinput sensors can track those vibrations using an armband and discern where the user tapped ...

When coupled with a small projector, Skinput can simulate a menu interface like the ones used in other kinds of electronics. Tapping on different areas of the arm and hand allow users to scroll through menus and select options.

Video is available (and recommended – you really have to see it in action to get the full implications of the idea):
