Florida Startup Unveils LapTouchTM - World's First Touch Sensor for MacBooks

After years of R&D, NeoSapien, Inc. (D/B/A Toad Tech) has launched LapTouchTM, a device that transforms any MacBook into a responsive touchscreen.

With LapTouchTM, MacBook users can tap, swipe, scroll, rotate, and pinch just like they would on a tablet - all without giving up the Mac experience they love.

The concept traces back to 2018, when the founders exclusively distributed AirBarTM, a similar plug-and-play device that added touch capability to Windows laptops. But unlike Windows devices, Apple has never released a touchscreen MacBook - leaving millions of users without the option.

Unlike conventional capacitive touchscreens, LapTouchTM projects an invisible light field across the MacBook display, turning it into a responsive, gesture-based surface. The result is a lightweight, low-power device that works not only with fingers but also with gloves, paintbrushes, or just about any object.

The company claims the device does not require any modifications to the Macbook and it does not void any of Apple's warranties. The breakthrough for 2026 is that now users don't even need to touch the screen at all. LapTouchTM can detect and respond to "air gestures" at a distance, unlocking futuristic ways of interacting with a MacBook that even iPads can't replicate.

Setup is effortless: simply plug LapTouchTM into a MacBook's USB port when needed, and remove it when not in use.

Phillip Cantore, Founder & CEO of NeoSapien, Inc. said: "Over the years Macbook users kept asking us for a touchscreen solution, Apple has never offered it. We got tired of hearing it, so we made it ourselves. Now more than 100 million MacBook owners worldwide can experience their laptops in an entirely new way"

LapTouchTM is now available for pre-order on Kickstarter - with early-backer discounts, exclusive perks, and limited collector's editions for first supporters.

Each first-edition unit will be manufactured in the USA and personally signed by the founder, making it a collector's release for early backers.
