Multi-Touch on Steroids from Stantum
If you thought that that the iPhone was the last word in multi-touch, then the fellas at Stantum might just make you change your mind. They claim to be the “pioneer of multi-touch technologies since 2002″(according to their website) and have a technology called Pmatrix that allows users to work by moving as maany fingers, nails or styluses simulataneously on a screen. In essence, this means that you can do something by running all your fingers across a screen. Making all this magic happen are a matrix-patterned touchscreen, a dedicated multi-touch controller and a software driver. PMatrix touch sensors do not need calibrating and yet are sensitive enough to respond to wet or gloved hands. The company already has two multi-touch platforms – the SMK 3.5 and the SMK 2.5. The thought of using many fingers might sound a tad confusing to some but we like it! Now, we just hope some handsets use it.
