ThinSight: A new interaction technology for ubicomp

Steve E. Hodges, Shahram Izadi, Alex Butler · 2007

We present a novel technology suitable for situated displays, called ThinSight. It combines up close zero-force multi-touch interaction, with interaction and data exchange from a distance using a mobile device. The novelty of ThinSight lies both in the combination of these features and in the thin formfactor of the hardware which can be fully integrated into commercially available LCDs without affecting display quality. This readily deployable situated display technology opens up many new ubiquitous computing possibilities.
