After watching the Secondlight demo from Microsoft, Johan came up with an idea to show ‘private’ information on a touchtable. For instance during a board game on the table a player wants to view his private stack of cards. In a traditional game he would have his cards turned upside down and would view them behind his hand. This behaviour can be mimiced on the table as well. If the user puts the side of his hand on the table the table can show the card within the confines of his hand.
