Coffee Table PC Mod

[HardOCP News]

This coffee table PC mod is rather impressive. The fact that this amazingly cool mod was made by some guy working towards his software engineering degree makes this mod just that much better.

Its basically a table based computer system with a camera pointing down at the screen and using pattern recognition it detects user interaction and with a piece of software I wrote images, video, audio and comments sent via bluetooth to the table are plotted on a map, its designed for collaborative interaction with multiple people using it at any one time and no matter what side of the table people are at the part of the interface that person is using rotates so its the right way up for them

He needs to YouTube this to give us a demonstration of his feat. This looks quite amazing.

Hopefully it cost less than the $10k MS is charging for the Surface.

I love seeing what one person can do with a time, patience, and know how. Props to this guy.

The competition would definitely be welcome. Even if it is just MS vs. DIY.

The guy better patent it before somebody big steals it from him.
