Multi Touch Screen

Touch screens have reached a whole new level! Most of us use a single contact touch screen as part of our daily lives when we use an ATM or information kiosk but there's new multi-touch screen technology that will change the way we interact with computers. The brainchild of New York based research scientist Jeff Han, the screen allows you to interact with the computer screen using multi touch points. Using both hands you can manoeuvre images around the screen, re-size them and zoom them in and out depending on the application. It could be photos, maps, graphics - you’re really only limited by your imagination.
