Touchscreen Examples

I happened upon a touchscreen kiosk at a mall in San Francisco a few
weekends back. I couldn't tell you exactly what mall it was at, but
maybe you can figure out from the photos. It was on Market, I believe...

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I hope that helps. :-)

The company I work for makes these . There's a lot you can do with them - great for showing temporal rrelationships x-ray views, multi path narrative, - we use them extensively in our museum work. They can be set up in both the horizontal and vertical.

Not sure if its exactly the kind of thing you're looking for, but the hold up really well in public spaces.

Jeff,

You might find interesting to have a look at the LiMe (Living Memory)
project by Philips Design
(http://www.design.philips.com/about/design/section-13506/); there is
also a lot of pictures available here
(http://www.design.philips.com/About/Design/Section-13617/Index.html)

"LiMe is a network of augmented places within the local community
which support the creation and meaningful distribution of informal
content within that community. LiMe provides low-threshold interfaces
in natural meeting and crossing points within that community, such as
cafes and bus stops."

Notice many similarities between interaction style with LiMe's Coffe
Table and MS' Surface; the small issue is that LiMe was completed
almost 10 (!) years ago, in 1997. Yes, at those times it didn't have
any multi-finger interaction, but multi-token style was already
envisaged, and embedded. Another interesting detail is that the
person portrayed on many of the LiMe pictures, Anton Andrews, who was
in fact a design director of the project, has left Philips Design and
joined - guess whom? - Microsoft.
