Thanks to everyone who suggested places that are using touch tables / large interactive screens to engage groups of visitors.
I now have another couple of question along the same lines - can anyone recommend any companies that are developing content for these type of devices?
Has anybody got experience of using Microsoft Touch tables?
Thanks
Linda

Hi Linda
The NHM used a large projection touch system for multiple simultaneous users in its 2007 Dino Jaws (now a touring exhibition - http://www.nhm.ac.uk/business-centre/touring-exhibitions/exhibitions/dino-jaws/index.html) . The table was made by Dutch interactive firm Kiss The Frog (http://www.kissthefrog.nl/).

Does anybody have any examples of places (not just cultural venues) using Touch tables or large(ish) scale interactive touch screens to engage users?
