One of the more interesting items that caught my eye out in San Diego was a new (sneak peek) design prototype from the folks at Touch Table .

The portable prototype is a highly mobile version of  their existing product lines, sporting many of the familiar functional aspect of their larger stationary tables. While it is a much smaller form factor, the interface is split into 2 distinct sections: one for geospatial navigation and common operational picture drilldown, and the second for tabular information query and relational data display (see video below).

The ruggedized case supports these dual touch screen displays, a dropdown keyboard/mouse panel, and all self contained computing hardware/storage components. Like other TouchTable models, this one is slated to support networked collaborative capabilities, allowing people to work together in virtual markup space.

No word on actual power source options or battery life, safe to say it will consume some substantial juice in the field.

I had a chance to get a closer look at the unit through an onsite interview with the Touch Table crew:
