The first ever touch-screen interactive tabletop in UK- Epson X-Desk unveilled…
The initial details about the Epson X-Desk had come out in the ISE 2009, though not much was disclosed at that time except the primary features. But, now it’s time to check out the Core 2 Duo-powered X-Desk, which comes with a whooping 1,024 x 768 resolution panel.
It can recognise up to as many as 16,000 objects with the help of Smart Tagging, and it is surely a good competitor against the Microsoft’s Surface. Not only is this highly responsive, but also designed elegantly to impress all the tech geeks, as well as the business owners.
The salient features of the Epson X-Desk include Multi Touch, Object recognition, Gesture recognition, as well as Bluetooth connectivity. Therefore, one can transmit images or other information from the device to the desk and vice-versa.
Multiple users can use multi-touch and flick the images around within micro-seconds. What’s more it can accommodate as many as 16,000 variations of optical Smart Tags to identify users, products and also recognises pre-programmed shapes with great ease.
Essentially, the X-Desk comes with a camera, housing, a PC pre-loaded with xcite software, courtesy Impressx, optical sensors, Epson 3LCD projector and the rear projection screen, giving you a superb option, matching the capabilities of Microsoft’s Multi-touch Surface technology, code-name Milan.
