Microsoft Surface - Is it really special?

What is so special about Microsoft Tabletop? One can touch a color in the one-screen palette and draw an image on the screen. Touch blue and draw the sky, Touch green and draw grass. Microsoft Tabletop can understand all this. It also recognizes various objects. The system can be designed to set up a plate on the surface and the system throws up a menu! And many more possibilities await us as we progress.

Many had a wrong impression about Microsoft Surface. They thought it is another glorified and hyped touch screen computer. And they are proved wrong by the features provided in the Microsoft Tabletop. The touch screen computers enable users to do away with keyboard and mouse. They can navigate the menu by touching various options to reach a logical end of viewing data or printing. And there ends the comparison. Microsoft Tabletop can do many more things, which you think are not possible!

The Features

There are four main components being important in it's interface: directinteraction, multi-touch contact, a multi-user experience, and object recognition. This device also enables drag and drop digital media when wi-fi enabled devices are placed on it such as a Microsoft Zune, cellular phones, or digital cameras. It features multi-touch technology, that enables multiple points of contact.

This technology allows non-digital objects to be used as input devices. This means that the source of information does not necessarily have to be digital in form.This is because,the technology does not rely on restrictive properties, such as the capacitance, electrical resistance, or temperature of the tool used

Direct interaction: Facility to manage digital information with hand gestures and touch instead on mouse and keyboard.

Multi-touch contact: User need not use only one finger to manage digital data. If user dips five fingers in five different colors in the on screen paint palette and draws five lines with five fingers, you get five lines with five colors . . 

Experience the Tabletop Computer

It is as significant a progress in user interface technology as the progress from DOS [Disk Operating System] to GUI [Graphic User Interface]. Many research reports prove that a large number of people are intimidated and isolated by today’s technology. Many features available in mobile phones, personal computers and other electronic devices like digital cameras aren’t even used because the people aren’t as aware of the features and benefits as they should be or they aren’t as comfortable with the technology to enjoy those features. .
