The Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas has a new attraction from Obscura Digital that combines gesture control with 3 HD projectors to create a giant multi-touch, multiuser, 18-foot wide wall.
The basics are 3 HD projectors behind an 18 foot multi-touch wall. The difference here is that the whole thing is one 6000 (almost, it is actually 3×1920 projectors, so it is a bit less)pixel plate, with over 100 4K-6K images/videos being displayed at one time. No “deep zoom” needed, everything is real-time. Also unique is the way we scale across GPUs seamlessly.
Alongside the Rock Wall (woot to Obscura), the new Hard Rock Las Vegas also launched with seven Microsoft Surface units and a touch-based interface at each of the cafe’s 38 booths. Info and videos on those components here:

Rock ’n’ roll.
