Experimenting with Multitouch

I’ve been looking at multi-touch solutions for what seems like ages now. But it’s not until now, since I’ve met and seen multitouch-barcelona that I’ve gotten round to build something that works without costing a fortune. Using MTMini’s guide to building a multitouch surface, I’m now happily experimenting with multitouch input and flash apps.

Next up will be testing with a projector (to arrive tomorrow, woohoo) and hopefully I’ll have my multitouch screen up and running over the weekend! Put this together with some Arduino RFID, and sooner rather than later, a MAKE-like DIY device-recognising-content- downloading-physical-interaction prototype will be reality.

Thanks Xavi for getting started, and Ianus for continuous inspiration :)
