DUO - Turn any LCD into a touch screen

This is the DUO, a kit by KCI Communication that converts almost any laptop or computer LCD into a touchscreen with full tablet functionality. The device works basically like the Navisis’ laptop tablet. There is a base station to be attached to the top of the display to track the XY coordinates and position of the pen.

The DUO can be used on 17-inch or small LCD monitors. It works with Windows and automatically synchronizes with Windows Vista and Windows 7 tablet software. The DUO supports multiple languages. It costs $119.95.
