The restaurant Inamo uses touch-sensitive tables

We've seen many different uses for touch-control technology, especially since touchscreen support was included in Windows 7. In this video, however, we take a look at something quite unique: Inamo, a restaurant where touch-sensitive tables are used to order food, and more.

The restaurant's tables are each equipped with a projector and touch controls that can be used to order food, drinks and even information on where to go afterwards. We interviewed Chief Operations Officer Noel Hunwick about how it all works.
