Have any of you lain awake at night wondering just how many simultaneous touch events your iPad can handle? Yes, no? Either way, you need worry no more, as these two videos (above, below) show you just how many it can handle.
Instinctive Code developer, Matt “Legend” Gemmell (a man whose personal motto appears to be, ‘Modesty is Lying’) has sat down to make code that seeks the answer to this question.
Gemmell’s made the source code of his software available (requires iPhone SDK 3.2) and plans a few more experiments in the coming weeks.
Oh, and for the short attention span people, the iPad supports 11 simultaneous touches. Just in case you headbutt it in the middle of some complex adventure game, we guess.
