Commercially, large displays can be used by multiple clients at the same time, either in retail or the hospitality sector. Applications of this can be in teaching, where a tutor can have two students making two separate input functions at the same time. In presentation scenarios, large multi-touch monitors with 10-point multi-touch technology enable two or more people to operate the same monitor at once, performing independent functions.

It allows businesses to tell their story and users can move seamlessly interact and browse through catalogues, data, images, simulations and 3-D presentations. Some examples of where the 10-point multi-touch technology is best utilised is in product promotion and data visualisation situations. It also deals well with a shirt sleeve touching a screen, or a little droplet on the screen which can confuse two-point technology. But a screen that uses 10-point multi touch technology allows users to perform more complex actions on their touch screens than ever before.

The technology then advanced to two points of contact and many touch screens still use this older technology. Initially, touch screen products could only recognise one point of touch and perform one touch movement at a time. This allows you to easily zoom, flick, rotate, swipe, drag, pinch, press, double tap or use other gestures with up to ten fingers on the screen at the same time.
