Haptix turns any surface into a multi-touch interface for $70

Haptix Touch has just announced a new input device that turns any surface into a 3D multitouch interface. The device, called the Haptix, closely resembles the Leap Motion gesture controller in terms of appearance and underlying technology. Whereas Leap is placed on a surface and points up, though, Haptix points downwards at whatever surface your hands are currently resting on. This means that you can comfortably use Haptix for extended periods -- and it should also mean that input is a lot less finicky than the Leap, which has been broadly panned since its public release last month.
