MT-50 Multitouch Table

MT-50
	The MT-50 Multitouch Table
Manufacturer	Ideum

The MT-50 is an interactive multi-touch table developed by Ideum.¹ The table, now retired, had a 50" display with a 1280 x 720 resolution that used IR flood technology to register multi-user, multitouch gestures,² and used the NUI Snowflake software package to handle optical processing.³ It supported over 50 discrete touch points.⁴ The casing was built with aircraft-grade aluminum and tempered glass to allow it to stand heavy use in public environments.³

The MT-50 was replaced by the Ideum's next generation of multitouch tables, the 55" Platform and Pro tables.⁵
