Basicly what this graduate student did was take a 50$ piece of hardware (The Wiimote) with about 20 to 50$ worth of Radio Shack equipment, and sometime, and made is own multi-touch screen interface.
The wiimote is actually an infrared camera with motion sensors and Bluetooth. To make a multi-touch interface, he simply linked the wiimote to a computer via bluetooth, and using the wiimote's camera tracked an infrared emitter as a mouse.
it's VERY impressive. It's one of those "I wish I tough about that"
