Computer Interaction of the Future!

Welcome to Edutechie.com! If you're new here, be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

So today I was reading around and came across this video, which really isn’t that new, but it really blew my mind. 

This is just plain awesome! Think of the possibilities in education across the board. Here are some of the ideas I had just off the top of my head.

  • Art - Photo Editing, Photo Managment, Drawing
  • Computer Science - Gaming - imagine how much easier it could be to create and manipulate computerized environments
    • On a sidenote… think of the possibilities with Second Life and other multi-player games.

Come to think of it, this is just plain applicable to make navigation easier and more effective!  Wow!  What do you think?

Does anyone know if Jeff Han’s mulittouch technology is being offered to schools as an alternative to smartboards? It would be great if Apple were to offer a large scale version of its latest ipods.
