well you obviously have never been to a modern day highschool or college almost all classrooms have changed from using whiteboards to smartboards. either go to school for once or look it up nub.

so 'smart board' aka 'magic thing', made by a special tribe of elves.yep I'm with the doc

It may not be microsoft surface but this is just a Smart Board that is also using speech to action programs and of course the actions will be delayed because none of the speech to action touch boards have even been close to perfected yet and if u dont believe me go do some actual research

Christ. ?v=ZlWCgWCoeOg is a Microsoft surface.This video is not... It is a demonstration of using multi touch technology, to control certain applications. Problem is they are using a projector and a peace of shaped board. Just watch it, see the hand movements in relation to the image in screen. They are very deliberate and a bit inaccurate.Can you prove that I'm wrong?

no dude, its not a hoax, thats Jefforson Han (i think), the creator of multi-touch technology. If you look at ?v=ZlWCgWCoeOg you will find how it works. The infared tech etc is stored UNDERNEATH... please do your research before you start making totally ridiculous comments.Regards,Az

dude its not fake look at the other videos they use a projector to display the image but the sensors in the table connected to the projector and the sensors in the table tell what the projection should be

Believe what you like.It's a projector, on a white piece of wood. I don't see any active components on the board, there are no cables, there are no infrared transceivers. Multi-touch touch panels already exist but they are expensive as they use capacitive touch technology and some pretty clever calculations.IT'S NOT A 'MICROSOFT SURFACE'This is a concept, not a working product. The fact they portray it as one makes it a hoax.Open your eyes, look for the evidence and use some intelligence.

No hoax buddy,Have a little read up on 'human computer interaction', you'll soon understand that it's just another way to use a computer. Wait till November, when some of your local bars buy these systems, you'll see :)

DrPhallus (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)

You tools.It's a hoax.
