Touch screens - sorta OT (ATM)

As a diversion from the humdrum of waiting for your model torebuild here's a wee off topic post.
More especially its for all you die hard tech fans keeping up withcool stuff.

Here is alink to aYouTube video for EON Touchlight - you might like to check out someof the related videos too

and further a homemade multitouch experimentlink2

I'm really not sure multitouch has an application in CAD because itseems to lack pointing precision but I guess someone will try toput it in anyway

As for multitouch itself I'm not convinced that people would wantto poke their greasy fingers at a screen - although perhapsaugmented by voice recognition- or that someone could becomfortable doing so all day vs using a mouse but...

besides you'd have to clean it all the time to see the pixelsproperly

I tend to think this will end up in the rarely used or impracticalbasket with stuff like 3d glasses

If you have ideas how multitouch could be used for SW purposessuccessfully ( other than presentations) I'd like to hear about it.
I'd think using 2 mice at once for a regular screen would be moreuseful...
