Hmm completly new technology... To me this looks like cube desktop and some apps other people made with their multi touch pads. i mean really you could make on of these with some paper, cardboard, and a webcamera
Just a matter of years an Microsoft invents the touch screen! And probably one day they will invent a phone that works with such a touch screen and call it a revolutionary device!
Bravo. Almost every single software/technology company does this. It's how technology advances. Taking technology from the labs, marketing the hell out of it, and putting it into the hands of the people. Thanks for revealing a not-so-secret secret.
This technologie was first used in 1983 with very small screen. It was available vor private use. The computer wasn't up to handeling it all back then and now it can, so that's why it seems it is 'se-invented' again.
It's like a car: if you build a new car, you haven't invented the car itself but you've improved some parts of it and optimized them. That's what MS and Apple are doing atm with the multi-touch screens..
Now all it needs is a somehow-clear hydrophobic surface so that your greasy fingers won't leave prints all the time.
