The document discusses several interactive multi-touch environments and applications. It describes projects that use Nintendo Wiimotes and infrared tracking to enable multi-touch interaction. It also discusses multi-touch tables and surfaces that allow multiple simultaneous finger inputs for interacting with visual content, maps, images, and games. Various creative uses are explored, including musical instruments, visualizations on bar tables, and do-it-yourself approaches.
