"Light Touch" Projector Turns Any Surface Into a Touch Screen!

A UK company called Light Blue Optics has created a new device that can turn any nearby surface into small touch screen. It's been unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas and it's getting a lot of buzz right now. The "Light Touch" device is basically a small projector that uses holographic laser projection and infrared (IR) sensors to create a virtual screen that senses multi-touch gestures. So instead of carrying a laptop around you could possibly just carry this pocket-sized device and setup a virtual "workstation" on any nearby table or wall.

Sounds very good to us. Even the little netbooks become a pain to carry eventually! No word yet on whether or not the Light Touch kills germs on restaurant tables...
