If you love to use touch screen for it’s simplicity and easy to use
features, than this news is for you, we already seen the sci-fi illusion in the
movie IRON MAN, now many concepts of that film are going to be true in near
future soon, but first of all have you seen Robert Downey Junior in that movie
doing computing work without any original computer's touch screen but just by
moving his hands, I am talking about that concept, more over in that movie you
have seen the 3D effects in touch screen concepts but there will not be 3D
effects in the display of touch screen with UBI DISPLAYS besides of that you
will have the independence to make touch screen anywhere any time without real
touch screen, isn’t it amazing?

The Real Concept behind UBI Displays
This simply works with the use of a Projector and Microsoft Kinect, with
these you will have the independence to touch the projection and it will detect
your touch to make it as a input to the system, there are multiple modes that
you can set they are –
- Single Touch
- Multi Touch
- Coffee mug detection
- Foot detection
- Write detection(means you can even write with a pen and it will detect it)

Moreover at this time this is free for personal and academic purpose
use, but for the commercial purpose you have to buy a license. You can open there
website and directly contact them. The genius behind all this is John Hardy, he
has created this in his PhD research, you can also see his academic papers and
details or summary that when all of this come into his mind and when he has
developed, step by step to the final release, all of this by date.
This is still in development and bug fixing phase the commercial version
was also under development, when I got this news. You can access to his website
-ubi_interactive.com, there you will get more details than this that I have
shared with you. The Tag line of this website is – “Turn any surface into a
multi touch display”, you can order it from there even I am thinking of it.
