Bigger is not always better! We would like to introduce Blade, a cutting-edge small-scale projective display with multipen interaction which can be used for desktop workspaces, presentations or information terminals alike. The lightweight display consist of a robust display surface and an independent projector and can easily be integrated in lecterns, kiosks or desks. Blade provides a flexible, lightweight and mobile solution for presentations. It can easily be manufactured in various sizes and shapes and relies only on off-the-shelf hardware. More images after the break!

Like my previous post on my multi-touch experiences at this years Cebit trade fair I also want to sum up my recent experiences with multi-touch projects at the Laval Virtual Exhibition. While virtual reality still being the main focus of the exhibition, interfaces always have been a very important part of this come-together of the virtual reality community. At Laval Virtual 2007 our project “Shared Design Space” was pretty much the only large scale interactive table that enabled accurate multiuser interaction (video). This year however multi touch is big and it is also big in Laval!
Warning: Detailed information ahead!

On of our Flux tables has set up at our partner lab in Magdeburg. Prof. Raimund Dachselt and his team gave us a warm welcome and together the multi functional table was installed in a newly established lab dealing with the magic of future interaction.

From February 5-7, we will present the latest result of the Media Interaction Lab at Austria’s Trade Fair for Information Technology and Telecommunication (ITnT).
Make sure coming to the exhibition. You will enjoy Flux, a hybrid between interactive table and whiteboard, at the Microsoft booth right in the center of hall A, Messezentrum, Vienna.
Interactive, multi-touch devices are rapidly increasing in popularity across many industries. Flux allows multiple modes of interaction in a variety of configurations, allowing increased flexibility, usability and productivity. Flux’s application interface is automatically optimized for the intended use depending on its orientation. Flux can be used as a sketch board, a discussion table or a white-board. Transformation between different orientations is single handedly achieved easily and elegantly.
