Developing a truly multi-user, multi-touch display is really a tricky prospect.

Instead of search for physical side rails, the scientists' method sweeps through AC wavelengths to obtain the exact electrical impedances of tips of the fingers in touch with the screen. Different physiques, different clothes as well as different footwear give everybody a distinctive signature that allows the screen identify specific people, even if both have multiple fingers in play. The scientists suggest that the strategy works well in collaborative workspaces, personalized products and security, but let us remember this is Disney we are speaking about: it's putting a strong focus on the prospects for shared screen gaming with no restrictions we all know today. While any practical me is still far away, it's not hard to see future pills and tables which are designed from the beginning to inspire just a little mingling.
