Imano Restaurant in London

Coolest Gadgets has an interesting story and video about the Imano Restaurant in London which features a multitouch table on which you also eat.

I'm not a big fan of over-head projection when it comes to multitouch and I would have thought that it would be a horrible experience in a restaurant with projections of bouncing balls and plasma on your food while you eat, but somehow the folks that implemented the over-head projection system set it up so it would not project on people's plates. That makes the over-head projection system more enjoyable. Over-projection also costs a lot less and you don't have to worry about wear and tear on the multitouch surface itself - its just a table after all.

Here are some great pictures of the restaurant complements of Wired.
