Bonfire - System That Projects Touchscreen Interface on the Surface Next to Your Laptop

Bonfire is a special system developed for tabletop-laptop interaction. The technology involves the use of cameras, lasers and mirrors in order to transform the spaces on the left and right of a laptop into interfaces that a user can operate.
Bonfire uses lasers to project interface onto the surface near the laptop. Using the projected interface the user is free to interact with pictures, videos and other content.
In addition, the interface can be used to transfer different content from a handheld device to the laptop, informs Techi.
It would be worth mentioning that this is more than just a touchscreen interface, the system serves as an addition to laptop's keyboard and mouse.
