N-trig is a company from Israel focused on developing new technologies meant to allow users to interact with computers and two of their innovative products are the first dual-mode pen and touch input device.
At SID Display Week 2008 in Las Vegas, N-trig showcased a new standard for multi-touch input on large format displays, based on its DuoSense technology with full multi-touch capabilities optimized for large displays.

"N-trig is again raising the bar on the meaning and application of full multi-touch capabilities for large format displays, which will enable OEMs and ODMs to create a user experience that is so immersive that the line between the digital and the physical blurs," said Amihai Ben-David, CEO of N-trig. "By enabling an unlimited number of other people to use their hands to naturally manipulate digital on screen objects, images and more, DuoSense's full multi-touch technology brings the user-computer interaction into a new realm, further breaking down the barriers between man and machine."



A full multi-touch display measuring 22 inches in diagonal can now recognize all the simultaneous touch points from the users. On it you can manage documents like on a desktop computer monitor, moving and pushing these aside with your own hands, and even make sketches or write notes with a pen.

Another capability is of shuffling pictures with both hands. You can also play games in multiplayer mode on the same display, simultaneously.
Such a display, when it will be available on the market, would be useful in the following sectors: gaming, multimedia portable consoles, information kiosks, collaborative design, entertainment, broadcasting, and education.

"We're provoking the imaginations of our customers, setting the stage for OEMs, ODMs, and ISVs to develop a huge range of new applications," added Ben-David. "True multi-touch offers an unprecedented experience which takes people to new levels of what they're able to do with computing devices."
