Multi-Touch Displays
Interactions and applications for vision-based multi-touch displays
Multi-touch displays are quickly emerging as one of the most innovative and potentially revolutionary interaction devices since the advent of graphical user interfaces. Our displays are able to not only track fingers, but also other items placed on them (e.g. the side of a hand). We are conducting research on several aspects related to multi-touch displays including event models, basic interactions, collaborative use of the displays, applications in 3D design and use by people with autism.
