A Cutting Edge Hack Job Brings Multi-touch To Apple's Desktop - Gizmo Watch

A Cutting Edge Hack Job Brings Multi-touch To Apple's Desktop - Gizmo Watch: "Hackers are bunch of people who make news for all the wrong reasons, from phishing credit card details to hacking into ultra secure government servers. For a change, we have a hack job that might do the digital world and Apple a lot of good. We are talking about Christian Moore’s revolutionary open source framework called the LUX which brings the famed multi-touch interface to Apple’s OSX operating system. This hack job has the potential to redefine user interfaces as the finger-based touch sensitive technology will give artists and designers the irreplaceable hands-on approach to sketching, painting and designing. That apart, keyboards and mouses will become redundant saving the world a whole load of electricity and this obviously will result in a lot of space being saved too. How about coupling this to a projected virtual keyboard and a tactile feedback system? The possibilities are just endless!"
