Title: Touchscreen interface
Post by: Sky on March 08, 2006, 07:15:45 AM
I thought this (http://mrl.nyu.edu/~jhan/ftirtouch/multitouchreel.mp4) was pretty nifty.

Off to the Spelling Concentration Camp with you, my old son.

Bugger.

Allow me to act 15 years old for just a moment...

I can't decide if "the grammar snake" is awesome or lame.  Probably awesome.

Neither, good sir!  Indeed, if we stay in our 15 year old persona, the Grammar Snake is "1337."

Very slick. Thanks for the link, Sky. Would you happen to have any other information on it?


Title: Re: Touchscreen interface
Post by: Sky on March 08, 2006, 09:52:10 AM
Nope, my supervisor sent me the link this morning.

That actually is quite awesome... now that I finally got that link to work.  I want one.  I bet Laurie Anderson or someone like that incorporates it into their next show.  She'll need a really big screen and maybe naked people can roll around on it to make weirdo Laurie Anderson music!

I was feeling artsy.   :-)

That would so rock for my future music studio. Having a tactile interface so I could use volume sliders like a physical mixing board would be unspeakably cool. The typewriter keyboard he was typing on was pretty nifty, too.

Just go to the root of the movie URL to see the researcher's page: http://mrl.nyu.edu/~jhan/

I hope they make computers with this stuff.  I really want something like the Minority Report computer that Tom Cruise uses.

You just want Tom Cruise.

Maybe the tech equivalent of making 'art photos'?

I just wonder what kinda application they're tracing contours for with that stuff in her mouth.

Lula:Sexy Empire 3D ?

Actually, that's to model breathing, according to the site.

Uh huh... riiiiiight.

@andar:
I so want to see computer interfaces advance to the stuff they showed in Minority Report. Very fricking cool. It looks like they aren't far off.

Yeah, well I want the interfaces from Final Fantasy: Spirits Within.  Nyah.
