[Note]
Richard Monson-Haefel at Multitouch + NUI suggests a good empirical rule that is useful to identify required sensing specifications of multi-touch screens or surfaces. He calls it "half-diagonal" and I rewrite his rule in the form of equation as shown below:
Maximum number of fingers to detect = Display's diagonal size (in inch) / 2
For example, if you consider an 8" display, the equation tells that four finger touch is enough for your application.
And F. Wang and X. Ren also reported several statistics that are helpful to design multi-touch applications.
