Default The Next Generation of Touch-Screen Interface?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zp-y3ZNaCqs&search=touch%20screen

"This is a video of a multi-input touch screen that hopefully will make its way into consumer computer market in time. A standard touch screen allows one input at a time. This allows multiple people to use it and allows for Minority Report like features. Super Cool!"

A little futuristic Friday fun - the video is simply amazing! As enchanted as I am about this though, it will take huge leaps forward in many areas to see practical applications. I can see technology like this being combined with concepts such as HP's coffee table.

Funny enough, I was watching a show on the TV this afternoon and they showed off a table just like this. Although the one they showed was in use for Chicago. They use the table for emergency response. It's very cool how quick it is. At the end of the segment, they mentioned that there is only 1 other table like this and it's at the white house.

The coffee table thing? Yeah, that's what I thought of when I saw this yesterday. Cool stuff.
