Multitouch surface mount device

[cjohnsonuk]

I've seen Microsoft's surface and followed links to Cubit and others from links in other posts here but I'd wondered if anyone knew of anything similar to ebeam/mimio that could be put on any surface (including the floor) with a projector like Hitachi ED-A111 or Sanyo PLC51.

 

Whilst were looking into BSF alternative displays thought that something like this would add a little extra something if we could turn a surface like a table into an interactive image that many people can sit round. With multitouch it adds a little more flexibility.

 

Any suggestions? Ebeam and mimio on the same table?

I think (could be wrong) that both eBeam and Mimio use ultrasound for location, so I don't think having two units on the same surface is going to work. You could always try Johnny Lee's website for ideas:
