Perceptive Pixel shows world’s largest projected capacitive display at SIGGRAPH, we go hands-on (video)

Perceptive Pixel wasn’t kidding around when it launched the planet’s biggest projected capacitive display here at SIGGRAPH — all 82 inches of it were here on display, and naturally, we stopped by to give it a look. While 82-inch panels aren’t anything new , this one’s particularly special. You see, the company actually procures the panels from Samsung, and then it rips the guts out while bonding its own network of sensors directly to it; most large-screen touch devices simply pop a touch layer on top of whatever TV shows up in the labs, but this integrated approach takes sensitivity to a whole ‘nother level

Microsoft Touch Mouse to take center stage at UIST Student Innovation Contest

It’s August, and that can only mean three things: vacations, back to school shopping, and another UIST Student Innovation Contest . Taking center stage this year is Microsoft’s Touch Mouse — a multitouch gesture-based peripheral that we first saw earlier this year. UIST contestants will have to come up with cool new ways to interact with the mouse, with the winning innovator receiving $1500, and $500 going to the runner-up (trophies are apparently involved, as well).

KinectNUI enables Minority Report style interaction in Windows sans gloves (video)

When Microsoft released its Kinect SDK we marveled at the impact it could have on desktop interaction; sure enough, Kevin Connolly’s Kinect Natural User Interface has made our geeky pipe-dreams a reality.
