Microsoft unveils touch screen computing

[GodPigeon]

Giant computer blends reality with virtual reality

Microsoft has just announced its Surface Computing technology, a project that has been kept under wraps for five years. Using a giant table-like display, users are able to draw, interact with media, and use another new technology called domino tagging, in which a real-life object on the computer's surface is identified and becomes an on-screen object that can be interacted with. CNET News.com's Ina Fried got a demo of the Surface Computer.

They've already shown this, the question is when will it be affordable .

Seen it and messed around with it already, its like the idea of a home video-phone; sure its really cool, buts its gonna get real old quick.

Im saying this because the last thing i will wanna do after a long hard day is keep my arm up all day touching a friggin cpu screen.

flocking mind blowing...

what's with microsoft and the actually innovative stuff?

 

btw, did anyone else get the feeling they were in the movie "deja vu" when they used that software for imaging?

My brother showed me this on a different website.

 

I'm not surprised, but it surely does bring up some questions.

 

Cool stuff.

Gotta agree with shoma. The only thing a coffee table is good for is putting your legs on it.......I wonder what that would do:)
