Extended Off-Screen Keyboard

This is a quickie concept.  A while back I had an idea for a multi-touch keyboard. It was an interesting idea and I’m sure at some point it will become reality. However we’re a software company not a hardware player. What could we do in software using existing hardware?

What if you took the essence of that idea and made it as a complimentary tool to your existing keyboards:

The basic idea is that the device connects back to your computer and acts like a secondary display. This would be application sensitive so in PhotoShop you see visual tools on your secondary display and in Word you get editing tools.

Multi-touch audio application

This is a pretty interesting video of a new type of musical instrument.

People are still figuring out what to do with multi-touch technology. While the same interface could be done on a 2D screen with controls and UI to control connections and devices there’s something about physically interacting with the device that makes it more of a musical instrument and less of a computer.
