Developer Spotlight - Cyberdyne Tacto Unlimited Multitouch LCD Screen #DigInfo

[LZIM]

Funny how I was just asking this question and here's almost all the answers. A screen suitably robust for multi-touch, gesture based gaming, like RTS. But you do need a quad HD as he says at the end. What they don't have is 4:3 format. 4096*3072 would be a much better format for a flat screen for multiple users (1 per side for example).

2 questions:

Did Douxchamps developed this by himself?

He mentioned Cyberdyne being a small company thus no planned mass production, but any word about actual costs?

Thank you, and thank you for the full-length interview

[Diginfonews]

@UtherV Hi, thanks for your comment. Yes, Damien developed this by himself. Genius!

They are producing the table in their factory at limited quantities, but for mass production they would need to partner with a larger manufacturer, the benefit of this would be that the costs would also be significantly reduced.

[Diginfonews]

@UtherV Their website states that the base unit starts at 2.42 million yen (approx. US$30,000), but this pricing may be out of date. Please contact them at tacto (at) cyberdyne (dot) jp for more information. Thanks for watching!

[UtherV]

@Diginfonews Thanks! In your experience, is this actually a nice / proper price for a "device" like this?

[goodtime3k]

He should talk faster and talk to the point, not circling around and put me to sleep. But the way, the old guy should stop playing the device

[andreasnordboe]

The screen will be full of fingerprints eventually.

[invalidacess]

god this guy is so boring!

[Mezzanotte619]

[kograss]

it is a good video but it takes to much time.

[ICBMFTW]

Immeditely its flipped back... are there cyborg arms with it too??? :S

[Diginfonews]

@ICBMFTW The card is displayed on the screen ;)

[KhmerTrance]

Who else thought he was pronouncing accuracy 'procuresy'? 

[IsaacDeanMusic]

I wonder how many dicks were drawn that day.

[IsaacDeanMusic]

"And it survived an earthquake"

[IsaacDeanMusic]

Simple.

[MauREAPER1313]

they play like kids behind :D 11:02

[blab600]

They should get somebody to explain it better and quick....

[Diginfonews]

@blab600 The shorter 'DigInfo News' version is here: /watch?v=pM79xb4hz60

We've never uploaded a video like this before, so it's just an experiment to see what sort of response we get if we play around with the format, do you like it? Should we make more like this? Please tell us!

[blab600]

@Diginfonews I don't think anyone have the time to watch this whole video.

I like 'straight to the point' videos like the other version of this video.

I respect the fact that they are the masterminds of these inventions,

but they should get someone to talk for them.

Thank You for your service and time.

[neveste]

@Diginfonews I prefer these longer versions that have more information

[DjDedan]

[yosoyenrique]

I think it's simple... simple... simple...

[lnwreal9]

"ahhh footprint of my hand or ermm....ahhh...my handprint of my hand" LOL :P

[alvinheth]

foot prints of my hand for the win

[Spetznaz]

@alvinheth foot prints? of your hand? wtf? you fucking deform!

[alvinheth]

@Spetznaz lmao watch the video dude you'll here him saying that

[TheFlurryofFlames]

"We don't have pieces coming from Mars; it's not made of Unobtainium."... Avatar reference, for the win, although the movie was "fail".

[pkiriakou]

why is it hard to do with another system?

especially with a projector and infrared light?

doesn't it also detect the shape of the hand?

[veilx]

@pkiriakou I'm almost positive that you're right. Infrared systems should detect the shape of the hand, but they're also very processor intensive, and the more unique and distorted the shape, the more processing power will be consumed.

[pkiriakou]

@veilx doesn't this apply to the technology presented?

[veilx]

@pkiriakou Nope; somewhere along the middle of the video, he shows some extremely impressive, amazingly quick and accurate responses to the gestures he inputs. I'm not sure how they did it, but it's pretty awesome.

[Velenir]

That's so cool! Hope they find a partner to produce it soon.

[Casper123666]

LEET!! :D

[animunki]

lol at the people in the back having fun with it xD

[HxnduranG18]

[xDontFaintx]

This may be WAY better.

This may be WAY cheaper.

But still, 99% of the buyers will get it from microsoft... Brain wash ftw.

[AudioCorps]

@xDontFaintx it just shows that a large percentage of consumers are idiots.

[FlumenSanctiViti]

@xDontFaintx Or Apple!

[ehpixL]

@xDontFaintx no mac > microsoft, apple will win this battle
