If you want, you can actually buy most of the setup with Cubit:
http://nortd.com/cubit/

Included:

   - Nortd's Multitouch Screen
   - Nortd's Multitouch Software (computer vision, calibration, api)
   - IR Camera (perfectly calibrated for TouchKits)
   - Instructions
   - schematics
   - source code

 What you'll need:

   - A Mac/Win/Linux computer that's been purchased in the last few years.
   - A projector (we love and use a Mitsubishi PK20, but any projector will
   do)
   - A basic background in programming is helpful (but we have smart friends
   and good forums if you get stuck).



Or another alternative is to work for Microsoft Surface since they're hiring
interaction prototypers right now.

There was a TED talk by this guy a while ago which summarises what he 
has been doing really nicely:

Don't forget to check out some of the other talks which are quite 
inspiring.  If you want something really bizzare, but amazing:

remarkably cool stuff. Search youtube for Johnny Lee.

Thank you, any tips on where I can buy a screen or the best products  
to buy on how to make my own.  You can't use a regular touchscreen  
right?  Does it need to have the native multiple touch capabilities.   
Probably a dumb question, I know.

Re: [Flashcoders] MultiTouch

2008-06-03 Thread Andrei Thomaz
- most of multitouch experiments use a plexiglass surface, and a camera to
monitor this surface. You can easily find instructions about how to build
your multitouch table in the web. I have no specific link to sendo to you
because I am working only in the software side (using blobdetection and
eyesweb);
- the touchscreens I have seen emulate the mouse, so they are not 'multi'.
But maybe there is some touchscreen that has the feature of sending multiple
inputs to the computer...
