• Kids-on with the SMART Table

  […] came away impressed with how much they loved it. The multitouch table is built on the same basic idea and hardware as Microsoft Surface -- Vista PC, XGA projector, infrared camera -- but it's a custom patented SMART design, not Surface lite or anything like that. That said, the multitouch system isn't quite as responsive as Surface, and the kid-proof plastic screen felt a little weird, but it certainly works well enough -- the Table recognizes up to 40 touches (enough for six kids to play […] read

• NLighten IT7202 72-inch Touchscreen HDTVs Put Google Earth At Your Fingertips [CEDIA 2008]

  […] than dead as far as the biggies are concerned, but the folks at nLighten are intent to squeeze a bit more life out of these 72-inch 1080p DLP sets by sticking an infrared camera inside next to the light source that detects cursor points from an IR-tipped pen, allowing for a simple (no multitouch) touchscreen interface. It can act as a standard Windows mouse allowing for 1080p touchscreen Google Earth, or any other app. The 72-inch IR-pen screen is priced at $3,000, and a similar version […] read

• Infrared Spy Plane Leads To Police Officer's House Getting Raided Over Poor Insulation

  Last year, we wrote about an odd use of infrared camera technology. Apparently, a city in the UK, Haringey, was sending out spy planes with infrared cameras to map out heat loss from every home. It then put the whole map online, so that everyone could see how much heat their homes were leaking. While perhaps a little creepy, it was kind of a neat use of the technology. What we didn't realize was that there's a secondary use of such technology as well. […] read

• No Longer Science Fiction: Ray Guns To Control People [The Intersection]

  […] what about the Pentagon's ray gun? You can't see it, you can't hear it, but the harmless blast will stop you in your tracks. An operator uses a joystick to zero in on a target. Visible only with an infrared camera, the gun, when fired emits a flash of white hot energy - an electromagnetic beam made up of very high frequency radio waves. Okay, reports say harmless... but between shockwaves inside the skull and white hot energy, I'm moving to Sonoma County. Read the comments on this post... read

Arguably the most technologically advanced writing instrument not intended for killing a Bond villain, the Pulse includes an infrared camera (for recording text), dual microphones, a speaker, a headphone jack, and an OLED display that can even play back short "movies" (animations synced with sound). And it manages to pack it all in a pen size that, while still a bit thick, is relatively comfortable and thinner than its closest technological ancestor, […] read

• Microsoft's LaserTouch prototype brings hand control to any display

  […] which essentially allows people to retrofit any display (monitor, projector, etc.) so that they can use their own hands to control the on-screen action. According to Andy Wilson, who played a vital role in the unit's creation, an infrared camera is used to track how a person touches the screen, while software that he developed handles the majority of the magic. Too bad this could totally undercut Surface sales, right?Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments read
