While you think the 200-inch 3D TV is a massively large display or could be the largest in this world, researchers from University of Groningen have created something that is much larger – a curved multi-touch display that measures 33 feet wide, or by simple math this makes up a total of 396 inches wide (33×12 inches).
The massive curved touchscreen needs three computers to handle the touch detection, and another computer handling all the incoming touch-based inputs. There are 6 cameras and 16 IR emitters that make up a total resolution of 4900 x 1700 pixels for this massive display.
It can handle over 100 touch points simultaneously, and it’s not made up of any high-tech components. Instead, it was made by putting together with PCs, video cameras, projectors and cheap IR illuminators. A clip is included below showing it in action.
