in the day in night in room who when he grabbed his crotch people lost their minds he did what he touched that I think we had a cool one today this thing here it's called the air bar apparently this device right here attaches to any laptop and turns the screen into a touchscreen any laptop so comes in a few different sizes this one is for a 15.6 inch laptop something in that neighborhood it looks like this one available for 1413 as well as a Levin plug in hard to miss check when you plug in is it hard to miss touch just go crazy is there innuendo happening here there's something romantic about this your finger or with gloves and even a paintbrush what enhanced user experience pinch sweep zoom scroll it works with most notebooks running Windows 10 Windows 8.1 and Chrome OS okay we have a King MacBook here I think it'll work let's give it a shot let's give it a shot alright so line it up Oh as he muted that oh whoa the screen is a touchscreen now whoa that's a touchscreen MacBook Pro now the question is how precise is this gonna be it's close but maybe you move it more that way let's try this oh that's better it's just a matter of lining it up correctly for your display but that my friends is a touchscreen let's try and play a video there check it out okay the removal tool ah the precision is not exactly what I would call pin point get it it's fine for hitting icons that are huge but if you're trying to get in on a something real small is quite frustrating actually now keep in mind the product officially on the back states the compatibility Windows 10 Windows 8.1 and Chrome OS in my experience the drivers that exists generally speaking for items like this accessories like this can function on Mac OS sometimes maybe with a little bit less polish I've got Pixelmator open this will tell us how close it is to the actual tap point what's going on here whoa oh so that's not working does work which is cool but this is the point of video where you cut and you go okay I got a PC laptop man let's see what the differences okay I got a PC laptop now let's see what the difference is I can tell right away when I line up the air bar that fit is precise so I'm gonna remove the little sticky parts these little white lines fit perfectly when you lift this off you'll see the little tiny magnets stay there you put those magnets on fold this down it works as you'd expect but then when you want to use the air bar it just drops on to the right position you want to apparently have a little tiny gap above the edge of the air bar Windows found a driver this is windows 7 pro they found the driver apparently oh this is way better than on the MacBook way way better oh it's it's bang on precise it's super precise let's see if I can grab the little scroll over here Wow oh it's not even comparable to the other one I don't think that has to do with the software that's the thing I think if this company made one that was the exact form factor of the macbook display something tells me where oh they just launched youtube rewind you never know you might see your uh your old pal Lou in there oh look it even realizes I might want touch input as well for the text let's open up paint here Oh baby do a little Jack Attack here there he is mr. pixel Jack a lot of ear he's also been working out so he's a little more buff than usual those are his muscles right there that that's a hundred that's that's like a proper touchscreen I hope you're getting that that is very that's beyond my expectations for precision not functioning so well on a MacBook Pro but that's not what it's designed for so who cares here in Windows bang on precision you can see the size or trying to hit like an X let's see this little X right here boom and it's not like you're completely committed to it I like the way they designed it in the sense of you want to get rid of it okay boom I think this thing's pretty cool I can see a number of different circumstances in which touch could be a cool thing to experiment with maybe for artistic endeavors it's a touchscreen for any laptop look at it that's all it takes
