N-Trig Releases Multi-Touch Drivers (Beta) for Windows 7 RC

Posted by Warner Crocker | 05/06/2009 | 4 Comments

N-Trig has released a beta of the multi-touch drivers for Windows 7 RC targeted at developers. There are packages for the Dell Latitude XT and XT2 and the HP TouchSmart TX2.

N-trig DuoSenseÃ¢â€žÂ¢ Multi-Touch Beta Package (2.59) for Windows 7 Release Candidate

The DuoSense^TM multi-touch package for Windows 7 Release Candidate enables ISVs and developers to experience the Hands-on^TM effect, and allows software applications to be developed with integral multi-touch capabilities.

In this package, more than two fingers can be used simultaneously as input devices.

This package supports Windows 7 protocol only. In Windows 7, multi-touch gesture-recognition is identified by the operating system.

If you are a developer and have DuoSense technology enabled and the Windows 7 RC (build 7100) version installed on either your Dell Latitude XT, your Latitude XT2 or your HP TouchSmart tx2, you can download and run the multi-touch package.

I’m sure we’ll hear from Rob on this soon. You can get the package here.

downloading it now and will report tomorrow. I won’t be able to put up any video, though, until late next week. I’ll definitely give my impressions, though.
