The Cubit is a boxy tabletop with a clear surface. All a potentialmultitouch table owner needs to get started is a webcam with aninfrared filter and a small image projector. Plug in the webcam,install the Cubit software, turn on the projector and start touching.
Eyebeam fellows Addie Wagenknetch and Stefan Hechenberger said theywere releasing the Cubit in order to "prove that anyone could build [amultitouch table]." Besides offering the designs and software online,the two are selling DIY kits that include parts and instructions.
