well since many of you seem to at least like apple somewhat. i figured i might as well post this.

this is a prototype multi-touch display / program currently owned by apple..

at the time that the video released, it was not publically acknowledged to be owned by apple. however recently apple offically announced the development of this project several weeks ago.... im very interested to see how this pans out

I saw stuff similar to this when I was at NRL. They were using it for 'digital sand tables'. Use big displays with multi-touch capabilities to show maps, give orders to ships/fleets, etc. Surprised there isn't prior art on the patents...

their patents are only for killing people.
