In "interaction-free" measurements, one typically wants to detect the prese
nce of an object without touching it with even a single photon. One often i
magines a bomb whose trigger is an extremely sensitive measuring device who
se presence we would like to detect without triggering it. We point out tha
t all such measuring devices have a maximum sensitivity set by the uncertai
nty principle, and thus can only determine whether a measurement is "intera
ction-free'' to within a finite minimum resolution. We further discuss exac
tly what can be achieved with the proposed "interaction-free" measurement s
chemes.
