Multi-touch in Ubuntu using a webcam and your hands [Video]

Scoffing at the headline? Sure, it doesn’t sound entirely believable but, in a stroke of awesome-osity, it is.
Developers at the Interactive Computing Lab of ENAC have created just that: the ability to use multi-touch applications in Ubuntu with nothing more than a webcam and a flat surface(- no costly Apple trackpad needed!
So how it work? I’ll let the guys from ENAC explain: -
"The tuiototouch bridge converts multitouch events emitted by the vision software on TUIO and injects it in the kernel, simulating a standard multitouch panel. Ubuntu Unity or your favourite multitouch-compatible software does the rest."
You can find more details on the project @ lii-enac.fr but, for now, feast your eyes on the application in all its almost-minority report action….

Cheguei a testar algo usando um plugin[1] para o Compiz, na época lembro que tive resultados interessante. Fiz o teste usando a MTmini.
Acho que temos que ampliar nossos testes no Unity, o qual a arquitetura[2] usada é bem interessante.
