I'm in the market for a cheap LCD screen to convert into a multitouch box kinda like this:

I need to know the model number (so i can check if its easily convertable)

I'm currently working on a large 36" DIY multitouch table that is nearly done. Ill post something about that once ive finished. Looks fucking sick so far, ive gotten it to work with win7 (that supports multiotuch input) using cracked drivers that convinces it that i am using a $40,000 professional MT table like the microsoft surface. The build has cost me about $1300 only cos the projector is $1000. Once that i finished ill make a small MT box out of the LCD screen im hoping to buy.

The MT table im working on is similar to this

just with a higher quality construction using better parts and multitouch technologies

EDIT: if your interested in multitouch that tutorual above is really useful also i got most of my info off

OFFER IT TO HIM FOR A RIDICULOUSLY HIGH PRICE!!

heres an old picture of the mock-up rig without a case/projector and without the projection screen fully cut to size



the camera is a modded ps3 cam that only detects IR light and is hacked to work on windows

The wires you see on the bottom that arent linked to anything are like that because his dog ate the bits.

i so did not!



i was gonna build a touchscreen once until i realised i didnt know what was going on. a friend of mine did those using infra red diodes or some shit arranged in front of an old laptop 15" screen.



even if you have to buy new, places like MSY and All Needs sell LCDs pretty fuckin cheap.
otherwise just hit up ebay

omg I splurg at the idea of building them for sale! And also my speaker cabinets that I can make for home audio!

All you need to do is buy an EEEpc with windows 7...attach it to your multitouch surface and away you go! Patent pending XD

Hey crater face, you make speaker cabinets ?
Thats great ! but fucking useless....

In the world of quality audio speakers check these out:

and my favourites that are spouse friendly looking (hoping to get these when we get our new house): http://www.martinlogan.com/

and I have the apogee centaurs, too bad the company went under: http://www.apogeespeakers.com/
But these speakers are in the smithsonian institute

Once you go flat panels you never go back. No cabinets necessary ! Craterface free speakers !
Bi-wire these babies up to your home theatre with Krell or Mark Levinson's, that should set you back a small fortune !
Don't forget the MIT active interconnects
Play crysis with those cranked up and bring down the neighbourhood !

ribbon speakers, interesting and good designs but by no means going to cater for everyone and to the most usual of consumer would be not an interest to them.
