Game News from the NVIDIA GPU Technology Conference


Posted by Shane Dickson (Oregon Slacker), 6 days ago

PQ Labs introduced demos of their Multi Touch Displays including the Multi-Touch G³ Plus and Table top models. 

These can be used in any games that have touch screen capabilities, including World of Warcraft and Starcraft II. You’ll notice form the live demonstration of the PQ labs table that WoW works pretty intuitively, with the right click of the mouse simulated by touching with one finger and then tapping with the second finger. Holding down the middle mouse button and changing view was actually set to be interpreted as all 5 fingers touching the screen and moving your hand about as you would your mouse.  I imagine this to get quite some use not only in gaming, but in most of the audio/video organizers out there as well.  Read more at: http://multi-touch-screen.com/

MasterImage stated that within the next year the US should see the benefits of autostereoscopic 3D on LCD, more specifically, phone displayed 3D without the need for glasses. Seeing some of these displays in action was truly awe-inspiring.  It was great to see the level of details in videos and games that could be achieved with their Cell Matrix Parallax technology, and it looks like its already being used actively in parts of Japan and should be available within the US soon.
