A little multi-touch technology in Las Vegas

My family and I just returned from a few days in Las Vegas for a little rest and relaxation. During our visit, we had dinner at the new Hard Rock Café on the Strip. This particular Hard Rock features an interactive Microsoft Surface wall on the second floor as well as Surface screens at each booth in the dinning area and a couple of Surface tables near the wall. Of course my daughters and I spent quite a bit of time playing with the Surface wall and the Surface screen in the booth we were seated at for dinner. Well, I should say my daughters had an opportunity to play with the Surface screen at our table. I couldn’t get within a foot of it because they were having such a blast with it. 

The video below is of me playing on the Surface wall. Based on my experience I’ve decided that I need one of these in my house. I have just the spot for it. Now if I could only convince my wife of the same thing.

    Pretty darned slick. I think I need one of those as well. :-) When the price comes down to ~$1000.00, or so, I’ll pick one up.
