Multitouch Surface with Tbeta on Test.

I have been practicing on costructing a simple multitouch table this morning. Although some minor issues have been raised, it wasn’t very hard to make it work. Using a chair, environmental light, rice paper, paper tape and my Mac’s built-in camera i have manage to create a very basic multitouch surface. Tbeta was tested for tracking and calibration. the results from today’s session were very promising. Here are some pictures during tracking, and calibration.

Need to research more on building a multitouch table. Characteristics such as material, light, space, angle, height, width are more important to tracking as i thought. This will also help to stabilize on a good working calibration.

I’ll keep posting about my progress on building my multitouch table. I will keep putting Tbeta on test, till i ll reach its limits. More to come..
