Microsoft has released its new multi-input touch device, Surface.
“Microsoft Surface represents a fundamental change in the way we interact with digital content.
With Surface, we can actually grab data with our hands, and move information between objects with natural gestures and touch.
Surface features a 30-inch tabletop display whose unique abilities allow for several people to work independently or simultaneously. All without using a keyboard or mouse.” (Microsoft.com/Surface)
It’s nice to see that Microsoft is embracing their WPF technology to this extent. Its exciting to see what kind of technology will come of this. Just imagine having this at a doctors office or dentists office. Its a great way to be interactive. The possibilities with this type of software are endless. Minority Report here we come!
Surface doesn’t hit the market until Winter 07′ but you can check it out at this years SIGGRAPH.
