Microsoft Demos Super-Fast Touchscreen, But Will It Ever Make It To Market?

As solid as modern touchscreens are, theres very often an subtly apparent sense of disconnect when you try to use one. According to Paul Dietz of Microsofts Applied Sciences Group, it all comes down to latency he notes average touchscreens have a latency of a 100ms, which yields a noticeable bit of lag between a user touching a screen and the screen displaying a reaction to it.Sure, its totally usable, but it never really feels like youre fully in control. If you drag an app across the iPads screen, for example, the icon will dance around your finger a bit as the display tries its best to keep up. The display Dietz and his team have whipped up though could tighten that experience up considerably unlike the 100ms delay of a regular touchscreen, his display knocks that delay down to 1ms flat.
