First MultiTouch Twitter Wall
The MultiTouch Twitter Wall consists of at least six MultiTouch Cell 46 Advanced displays, 46 inches wide, in a 3 x 2 (three long, two high) configuration that visually displays tweets from selected hashtags and keywords. Users of the MultiTouch Twitter Wall can open tweets, represented on a rotating sphere, by touching a profile image and moving, or resizing, the tweet on the display.
The MultiTouch Twitter Wall offers alternate views on the spheres that enable images from Flickr to be displayed, searchable with a keyword, as well. Using Panphonics Sound Shower directional loudspeakers, the MultiTouch Twitter Wall can further engage users with positional audio from tweets and other content displayed.
The MultiTouch Twitter Wall automatically pools together and visualizes the “buzz†of an event, offering a real-time collaboration platform which engages users tweeting from mobile devices. The MultiTouch Twitter Wall was originally developed as a complementary application for the MultiTouch Cell 46 Advanced product, which is the first multitouch display designed for retail and digital signage applications.
