multi-touch

There is a second-generation dual-touch screen notebook, "Canova", in the works, from V12, a company with offices in Australia and Italy. Apparently the latest version will be manufactured by a U.S. company. As soon as I learned about it, my head was spinning with possibilities for application development.

It is perfect for Universal Design for Learning and gaming applications. The screen can orient content in different directions. The notbook can be laid out in a variety of angles. It will accept multi-touch and audio input.

Take a look at NextWindow's new multi-touch enabled large screen display, especially if you've been waiting to get your hands on Microsoft's multi-touch screen table, the Surface. I've posted the demo and more information on my Technology-Supported Human-World Interaction blog, plus a clip of a touch-game on the Surface.
