The Locus
Shall we play a game? ...No, I wouldn't prefer a nice game of chess.
The Locus isn't the future. It's our celebration of a possible future and our hopeful contribution to its realization.
We're not suggesting you should deep-six your television; what we are saying is that, with The Locus, you could. The Locus
is a multitouch enabled gaming surface using some nifty Natural User Interface Technology (NUIT) from our friends over at
Mesa Mundi. A traditional television is passive entertainment; only our eyes get to be involved in the stories presented
within. The Locus is both active and interactive entertainment. You make the stories, you play the games, you move the content.
Engage with a true multitouch, feature-rich tech experience in your own home. With up to 32 simultaneous touch events, everyone
can get in on the fray. Give a new meaning to tabletop gaming as you rock d20Pro with your closest friends-- no matter where
they live. With the Locus you can network in those long-lost gaming group stragglers who had to move across the country...
or the planet.
In association with Mesa Mundi, Geek Chic is excited to be a part of the team bringing multitouch gaming to the community
with a more consumer-friendly look and cost.
The Locus is ready to make the future with you.
