Re: [Emc-users] Touchegg with LCNC - Linux multitouch gesture recognizer

We tried LCD models similar to these but replaced the enclosures with
something rugged and put the Mesa cards and motor drivers inside.

This does not have to be on a touch screen.  It works on a conventional
track pad.   The problem is most trackpads or such incredibly low quality.
  Good ones are expensive.   I use one of these daily:

If you are a machinist they are interesting devices because they are milled
from aluminum billets then sand blasted to remove the machine tool marks.
The top surface is covered with a very thin 1mm layer of glass with a
ground surface to remove "stickiness"

Logitec also makes some but they cost more and are not as well made, just
typical plastic trackpads.
