Last week we went to the 10th RTT Conference in Munich. In this conference Realtime Technologies (RTT) and its partners presented their newest products in high-quality real-time rendering. Completely surrounded by really nice renderings of cars we presented a small multi-touch tabletop application for manipulating textures on 3D-models. In addition our project CRISTAL won the RTT Contest this year.

AVI08 took place last week in beautiful Naples (Italy). No piles of rubbish at all, so we could enjoy the nice city and the really interesting conference. Our paper and digital whiteboard project (Paperizer) was shown as well as the result of last year’s cooperation with MERL, a combination of pen and direct touch interaction for controlling Photoshop. Visit or updated project pages to get more information, watch the videos or download the paper and presentation slides!
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!
