Touch screen table - the story table

This is a very nice combination of old and new. An antique wooden table with some added high tech. It is in essence a touch screen kiosk application built into a table top. The touch sensor works through pieces of glass which lay perfectly flush with the table top. These are sealed and waterproof which makes this installation very robust, and totally unaffected by liquid spillage or by other inanimate objects.
Hereby the whole functions just as any table should, and is ideal for use as small video playback portal (or various types of information display systems or games) for in public spaces, libraries, hotel lobbies, museums, etc. We are quite proud of this little piece, as the table itself, and the content it shows are finished to a very high standard. The software and hardware configuration were both developed at the duyser.net studio. Commissioned by Mothership for nederlands fotomuseum.
