it looks really neat, imagine the possibilities of replacing a keyboard on a laptop with just a screen like this!

That is cool. I wonder how much computing horsepower was behind that demo.

good question. It has to be alot in order to easily manipulate data like that.

The guy is a hunt-and-peck typist. I was wondering what the text input interface would be like. For text, I don't think I'd find reaching to the screen and learning hunt-and-peck, an advancement or an ergo-improvement. Otherwise, it is technically interesting.

This can be replicated with a laptop touchpad that will accept multiple presses.
Its not as impressive as it looks, modern videogames will require more processing power than what was done there (Image resize on live, "lava" object is 2D)

I can't really see it replacing the regular keyboard for typing input, but for other tasks it will be great. And what company might bring us the first real implementation? The one that owns the patent perhaps...
