 January 22, 2008 One Comment

Pawel Solyga and his team have developed “Touchearth“,an application that lets you control Google Earth using two finger gestures on multi-touch table.

Pawel Solyga is one of the co-founders of Natural User Interface Group, a community working on different multi-touch screen technologies.This community consisting of more than 1000 members wordwide has developed open source software like touchlib, OpenTouch and the TouchAPI

TouchEarth uses the Google Earth COM API to control some of Google Earth’s features, while all the multi-touch screen events are sent to touchEarth from touchlib (or OpenTouch) using the TUIO protocol
