Multi-touch platforms have recently emerged into the consumer markets, and offer a rich and captivating interaction experience. At Autodesk Research we are investigating new user interface designs and interaction techniques for multi-touch systems, and exploring how existing software technologies can leverage the use of such systems.
Multi-touch displays have the potential to be incorporated into numerous domains and technologies, and so we are looking at a variety form factors a sizes for which multi-touch displays can exist. This includes large drafting tables, interactive table top surfaces, digitized tablets which could also support pen input, and small mobile devices.
