Linus Tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by nc.com your source for

00:00:05.279 --> 00:00:11.639
great technology selection and service along with Corsair memory and Western

00:00:09.920 --> 00:00:15.639
Digital hey guys we're here at marata checking out a project by elliptic Labs

00:00:14.040 --> 00:00:19.439
this is really interesting uh we we've recently talked on the W show about how

00:00:17.119 --> 00:00:22.560
we don't like touching screens uh in laptops and stuff because it's just kind

00:00:20.840 --> 00:00:27.320
of gross you don't want all those finger marks on your screen and then you have to clean it all the time and it it it

00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:31.439
becomes taxing where it really doesn't need to be and then touch integration

00:00:29.119 --> 00:00:34.640
with a laptop kind of isn't the greatest even though it's kind of cool so you can

00:00:32.680 --> 00:00:39.399
get in Windows 8 and you can slide in slide in other applications but then um

00:00:37.879 --> 00:00:43.239
it it's it's it's weird because you have to touch your screen on this one you can

00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:48.199
go as as close or as far away as you want with a a depth that you can set so

00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:51.840
if if you start freaking out over here it's not going to do anything but the

00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:55.359
second he gets closer to the screen he can actually pan up and down which is

00:00:53.600 --> 00:01:00.399
nice because if your mom comes over whatever and gives you dinner when you've been gaming for 14 hours when you

00:00:58.440 --> 00:01:04.080
turn to grab the plate you're not going to scroll the screen or do anything

00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:07.560
because the depth is not going to pick it up you can see as he pulls away it

00:01:05.960 --> 00:01:10.759
knows exactly where he is so as he pulls away the dot gets really big as he gets

00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:16.040
closer the dot gets really small it tracks him all over place you can see the data in the top left of where

00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:20.240
exactly he is to like I think three de two decimal points which is pretty

00:01:17.759 --> 00:01:24.920
impressive this is new interaction with computers is a big thing I've seen at

00:01:21.759 --> 00:01:26.560
CES this year Wellness TVs phone cases a

00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:29.479
new interaction with computers and this is a really interesting one because I

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:33.360
really don't like touching screens despite them being called touch screens

00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:38.560
