A cheap camera and a plastic bag of die is all that is needed to make this DIY Multi-touch display.

“Erling Ellingsen made his own homebrew multi-touch interface from a plastic bag, blue dye, and an iSight camera. It’s called the dyeSight.”

    Shame apple didnt think to do it that way as i belive the product would be so cheap. I’ve heard mircosoft use cameras but ive not looked in to it. Any way that is cool.
