Microsoft Surface
Welcome to the new but not new world of surface computing.Microsoft's Research teams brain brainstorming and hardwork over the years has yeilded great dividends and yet again it looks like the hardwork is going to pay off this winter 07' at the launch of the new product "Microsoft Surface".
Lets get to the point...Microsoft Surface is a 30 inch table top computer mounted in a table which allows users to interact with the digital content using gestures,touch ...hell yeah i.e now nobody needs to use a mouse or a keyboard \m/
People can interact with data using natural gestures , touch , fingers , brushes,day to day objects.The digital content can be grabbed with your hands and you can move this information between objects with sheer ease.
Key features
- Table/surface computing
- Slick, translucent surface
- 30 inch diagonal display
- Touch interface
- Multiuser facility
- Inbuilt cameras to see if anything is sitting on the surface
- Future of computing ( photo manipulation,creating spreadsheets,websites..)
- Synchronisation with personal electronic devices( PDAs/cameras/music players..)
- Interacts with devices that are tagged using barcode/RFID tags
- Used for commercial/ household purposes ( gaming,music management...)
Imagine placing your music player or camera on the Surface and transferring data (music , videos , photos ) using your hands by simply dragging them...kickass man.
Surface has fundamentally altered the way we interact with the digital content and is indeed a new bridge connecting to the digital world.Rock on MS... !!
