IN some of the popular smart phone there is a way to dismiss call by just hovering the hand over the screen.
We can do it by connecting mouse through OTP cable. But why would a developer implement it?
The popularity of android id not limited to mobile devices alone there is TV,auto, variables etc. so with most of the tv you have universal remote which come with trackball also this is also used there .

Also, on Android TV, it makes a lot of sense to Hover over an element, especially if it is supporting mouse pointer movement using TV remote

There are devices which supports 'Air Gesture' and hovering can be used for that. Check this:
