Some Interests

Initially I wanted to wanted to do something implementing touch screen technology. I thought it would be useful to research because of all of the touch screen hype you hear of these days. I wondered the possibility of having a touch screen large enough to be used by multiple people. That led to touch screen tables, which led to learning about people who actually build their own touch screens. I learned that the technology revolves around infrared tracking. That developed into researching the possibility of using physical gestures to control content on a screen opposed to just touching a screen.
