Multi-Touch Interaction Research

I came across this during a random stumble and am very excited. Jeff Han, a research scientist at NYU has been working with new forms of human-machine interaction models, and the multitouch Interaction platform is the result…it’s an amazing interface..no menus or mousing..it’s all done by touch. Use two fingers, all five or ten if you like. You can zooming, rotate, select, move… you name it, every way you can imagine manipulating data objects is probably possible with this thing. Plus it just looks like a ton of fun and is going to be the forerunner of virtual reality data representation  a la Minority Report or Neuromancer.
Check out the video here , it’s the only thing that can impart the true niftyness at hand here.
