Microsoft Research demonstrates laptop-compatible multi-touch displays
The idea of having a multi-touch-capable laptop sounds pretty sweet, but of course no one would want to carry a cathode-ray-tube in their backpack, so how do you come up with a solution for a screen less than an inch thick? Microsoft Research Cambridge’s Steve Hodges might have the answer.
Very cool, but at least right now this is still fairly basic. The demo he shows is a good example of this: it’s a start, but it still has miles to go before it’s truly powerful.
