Interactive IO - A Low Profile FTIR Based Multitouch Table

Aim was to create a clean and simple low profile table top design MT device, in preference a coffee table layout was choosen, where individuals can easily interact with the surface from all 4 sides giving 360° access to the interactive surface, also allowing for the use of fiducial markers. The MT device will function on the principal of FTIR (Frustrated Total Internal Reflection), this was chosen due its robust nature and its finger detection capabilities.
