Looks interesting! I look forward to interfaces/controllers like this becoming more common place (and yes, cheaper). But yes, I think these sorts of touchscreen controllers are what's around the corner.

I'm still waiting for the holographic virtual 7 foot screen, with non-contact motion sensing so the high-def-ultrasonic-ranging virtual keyboard can figure out what I intended to type....

[UstadKhanAli]

That'd be nice too. And it'd be nice to have enough room for that screen.

Can I get that on an articulated swing arm?

 

Looks a little easier to get around on than using your iPad -- or your iPhone -- as a VCS.

 

 

Really, though, let's cut to the chase and hook up one of those new Xbox motion controllers -- and, yeah, holographic non-screen-bound display.

 

Why dork around with half-measures?

[UstadKhanAli]

Maybe computer controllers will be sort of like Wii, where you balance on things, chuck things at a screen, etc.

There was a thing like that at NAMM a couple of years ago. Name was Red Leaf something. Basically a desk-sized touch screen that worked like a mouse and monitor. It wasn't outrageously expensive but I doubt it ever went anywhere. It was right around the time that multi-touch screens were coming in so everyone who wasn't in the "I just don't want a touch screen because they get messy and wear out" camp was waiting until they could move a whole handful of faders at once.

They'll really need to move over to the 3m format that we've had some conversations about around here to make this workable long term. I see they're already mulling it over now. That 3m is IT for the reference point for where we're going with multitouch ... imo ... none of this two-finger limitation or dinky ipod iPad pile-o-junk accumulating everywhere.

There's just something about this company that seems strange. For example, their referral program:

Ah. The Amway/Mary Kay business model. That feels creepy as hell.

[the stranger]

Yeah, no {censored}.

 

Makes me wonder if they think that's the only way to get going is by having your customers sell them, since it's such a niche product.

 

Honestly, I just thought the picture looked cool. I can imagine the potential.

 

I'll try to do a bit more research next time, so I'm not pitching multi-level marketing schemes in the forum.
