From eight-foot demo units to the Microsoft Surface to the iPhone, multitouch technology has experienced rapid miniaturization over the last two years. Now we go completely in the opposite direction, with the world’s largest multitouch wall. This tactile monster by Sensory Minds covers an astonishing 425 square meters. That’s around 6,000 times the size of your computer’s monitor.

A screen resolution of 34 megapixels created by 15 HD projectors makes for awesome images, while 30 directional speakers provide 3D aural immersion. If you’d like to see, hear, and touch it all for yourself, this baby’s installed at Nürburgring, a race track around the village of Nürburg, Germany.
