Multi-Touch for Mac OS X in Full-Screen

Multi-Touch Technology — Sun, 18 May 2008 16:58:24 +0000

Developed using Flash and C++ by Christian Moore and some folks from the NUI Group, Lux is an experimental open framework that brings a true full screen multi-touch interaction in Mac OS X with complex user interfaces and object manipulation similar to Jeff Han’s multitouch diplay. Christian built his own multitouch screen, which is just a big cardboard box with a webcam stuck to the bottom of it. That video is actually all Action Script 3 running in Flash 9 ï¿¼over Mac OS X, but he says it can work under any platform, OS and even a web browser. The demo was made on a MacBook and it gives a pretty good idea of what to expect from Apple in the future.

iPhone Multi-Touch 3D Demo

Multi-Touch Technology — Sat, 23 Jun 2007 19:15:00 +0000

Apple has adopted multi-touch technology within its iPhone, the first mainstream device to use the revolutionary user interface based on a multi-touch display and innovative new software that lets you control everything using only your fingers. Using iPhone’s multi-touch display, you can glide, flip, touch, or zoom in and out. Multi-touch technology is more responsive than single touch because it is capable of recognising multiple simultaneous touches. Touching the display with one or more fingers triggers different reactions based on context. The interface can be controlled by numerous intuitive gestures such as zooming in by poking at the area you’d like to enlarge with two fingers and then spreading them apart.

Minority Report-like Touch Screen

Multi-Touch Technology — Sat, 23 Jun 2007 17:44:11 +0000

Microsoft’s research labs have come up with a technology called Touchlight (now into the hands of EON) that allows people to navigate computer images using their hands to change their point of view, tilt and pan an image or a 3D object. This multi touch screen technology is similar to the one seen on the big screen, in “Minority Report,” in which Tom Cruise stands before a transparent glass screen, and uses hand movements to call up information and interact in a virtual interface with objects in three dimensions.
