HP's TouchSmart technology helps us interact with rare documents and art like never before

 Visitors of the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa will be able to browse and appreciate rare historical art books that are too fragile to touch, as a result of a new collaboration between the National Gallery of Canada and HP Canada.

Thanks to interactive HP TouchSmart technology, viewers will be able to “flip through” electronic versions of the books on a widescreen display with a multi-touch enabled screen, while the original works remain safely protected in a display case. The NGC is the first major cultural institution in Canada to partner with HP to make art more accessible through interactive displays.
