first look at my multi-touch table
i’ve finally got some pics together of the prototype i’m building for a reactable type multi touch table. Since this is a diffused rear illumination style table, i needed some source of IR light. This one is a partially finished IR light that will have up to 40 IR leds. The power comes from an old 300w computer power supply i had around.
I realized that the particular leds i got needed to be trimmed on the side so they would be able to sit flat against the board together.
Here’s the table frame i built. I left the frame pretty sparse because i tried to make few assumptions about what i needed. It couldn’t hurt to be a little more stable, but until i figure out how everything will fit, it’s just fine. the camera is on a cardboard box hidden partially by the frame.
