Default [Q]Dual-touch showing

Hello guys !
I found a video in YouTube that's showing dual-touch for our phone:

So can it be useful in games or atleast in the browser ?

This is not dualtouch, download touch test from the market and you will understand.

if i was playing angry birds and i want to zoom out, keeping in one place and other moving towards it doesnt zoom out. if i want to play a game with two buttons, if that was right then i could press one putton and press another, but no that doesnt happen.
if this was true then there would be something major on 4pda about it.

I think it could be made a patch with the programs algorithm . That whato you talking about doesn't happen because it's not softwarely opened .

No, you have not.
You may have seen software attempt to make best-guesses based on the first point of contact and the actual resultant reading received from two points of contact but that is all. Basically, if you have two fingers on a resistive screen you will get a reaction in the middle of those two points but you will never be able to detect two movements across the screen concurrently. Fact.
