Multi-Touch Interaction Research
Research on new and improved user interfaces has always interested me. The keyboard with the QWERTY layout is already in use since 1874 and the mouse, a bulky “X-Y Position Indicator For A Display System” was invented more than 35 years ago by Douglas Engelbart at the Stanford Research Institute. So, what is the next step? The research on “bi-manual, multi-point, and multi-user interactions on a graphical interaction surface” at the NYU Media Research Lab takes the concept of the touch screen at step further. Have a look at the images and demonstration movie.
