I do like futuristic looking demonstrations of technologies that will play a big role in the coming years. One demonstration that I found absolutely fascinating is a Photoshop multitouch image editing one. Working with small screens and a mouse plus keyboard combination is the current state of the art when it comes to image editing. It becomes problematic in a number of way including working in a team. It is also not natural to use a mouse to draw and edit images. Multitouch image editing uses a natural flow and offers a bigger detailed view of the image at hand.

I found a video on youtube demonstration how powerful this way of image editing is. Enjoy the show.

wow, looks cool :)
Wo0o0o0oW!!
so coooooooooooool…
but is this technology had been intruduced into reality??
Nice one.
I’m intrestes in this technology too, but I admit i have some doubt about this video.
I’m afraid this is something like that famous video of a touchscreen iPod that was a buzz some tome ago.
I think some changes of the workspace on the “table” happen BEFORE the gestures of the operator.
I hope to be wrong, but please watch it again aand tell me what you think.
PS: i read your feed since some month ago, sorry to be “lurkin” all this time :P
I actually don’t think that this is fake. This was apparently a project by Thomas GlĂ€ser who is a student at a German university.

Humm… I think this is just a concept. It seems to me too that some gestures try to follow the interface.
AWEOSME! SHIT! AWESOME
So… in the same time it would take a Pro with a mouse/tablet to retouch an image you can:
- Pull up a few tools
- Use the “Smudge” effect
- Develop lower back pains AND wrist problems
- Get fired for being too damn slow!!!
Seriously… where do these developers think they are heading? The mouse/keyboard combination has been perfected in the last 20 years and now we have to step backwards for this “cool” new tech?
I just don’t get it!
Dan, every think of the possibility of setting the table at an angle and lowered for a seated position? You’re missing the possibilities here.
