The Future of Multi-Touch Computing: Surface Computers by MICROSOFT

This is what the future is going to be, SURFACE COMPUTING! The computer is claimed to be able to break down traditional barriers between people and technology. Forget VISTA, which is just a copycat of APPLE COMPUTERS’ OS-X, this is the most genius product since MS-DOS by Microsoft and it is codenamed MILAN. A Surface computer is able to recognize physical objects from a paintbrush, credit card, phone camera to a cell phone and allows hands-on, direct control of content such as photos, music and maps. This is done through wireless, blue tooth and RFID technologies. Surface turns an ordinary tabletop into a dynamic surface that provides interaction with all forms of digital content through natural gestures, touch and physical objects. Microsoft intends to sell this computer initially to big companies in LAS VEGAS! One of the key components of surface computing is a “multitouch” screen. It is an idea that has been floating around the research community since the 1980s and is swiftly becoming a hip new product interface — Apple’s new iPhone has multi-touch scrolling and picture manipulation. Looking at the success of Apple Computers, Microsoft quickly jumped on its bandwagon again as usual and develop Surface Computers. Multitouch devices accept input from multiple fingers and multiple users simultaneously, allowing for complex gestures, including grabbing, stretching, swiveling and sliding virtual objects across the table. And the Surface has the added advantage of a horizontal screen, so several people can gather around and use it together. Its interface is the exact opposite of the personal computer: cooperative, hands-on, and designed for public spaces. It’s really amazing. Check it out below!
