Incredible new touchscreen controller

[Guest Vercengetorex]

Oh my goodness, this is the most advanced controller I have ever seen  :o

Multipoint touch screen mated with an 800x600 LCD with built-in graphics for different "control elements".

This thing looks incredible.

Looks kewl however....

Great concept, bad implementation.

Why not put a micro-size PC in there running MAX/MSP?  The cool "organic" GUI could easily be done with MAX, You could have real-world I/O not just OSC.

The hardware is all available off the shelf, including the touchscreen:

Bonus: Extremely powerful real time audio processing is easily possible with MSP, and very powerful video processing can be done with the Jitter add on.  

Best!

The audiopad is a great concept, now that is innovative.

It talks about how the objects are magnetically controlled. It reminds me of this new button control surface for the PC I was looking at. The panel had buttons you could arrange in any setup you would like, and you could produce strings and other types for simplifying your programs. If I can find it again I'll post it.

hi !

they said that will be 2000euro/2400 dollars.....

too expensive....

at that price tag you could buy a touchscreen notebook...

the most interesting things too me is OSC protocol...

any chance that we will have some DIY OSC controllers? :)
