A superhuman character in my book has the ability to sense objects outside of his body by simply being around them without touching them. There is some sort of field that extends outside of his body and allows him to feel anything inside that it encompass. It takes a while for him to learn to harness it so he can feel smaller objects or expand the field. He starts out feeling basic shapes like a marble or a small simple box, and eventually is able to distinguish ink from paper with such accuracy that he could read a book without opening it.
Is such a power possible?
What would have to happen biologically for him to be able to achieve this?
If this power isn't achievable by natural biological means, what technology could produce this?
- A basic explanation of this power is "an x-ray you cant see" in the sense of the individual can feel others around them and objects but they cannot see something they are feeling that is not in view such as being able to feel the ink on the page of a book and through the basic feel of it, determining what letter it might be , think of it like Hellen Keller having someone trace the letters of a word in her hand
