INTRODUCTION
SURFACE is a Whole new category of computer device.
It is near to same computer as the our PC,Laptop.
Invention by Microsoft Group
It was announced on May 29, 2007
OVERVIEW
Microsoft Surface is a Multi-touch product from
Microsoft which is developed as a software and
hardware combination.
Technology that allows a user, or multiple users, to
manipulate digital content by the use of natural
motions, hand gestures, or physical objects.
1.Screen
• A diffuser turns the Surface's acrylic tabletop into a large horizontal "Multitouch" screen.
• It is capable of processing multiple input.
• The Surface can also recognize objects by their shapes.
2.Infrared
• Surface's "machine vision" operates in the infrared spectrum.
• LED light source aimed at the screen. When objects touch the tabletop, the light reflects back and is picked up by multiple infrared cameras with a net resolution of 1280 x 960.
3.CPU
• Surface uses many of the same components found in everyday desktop computers.
Eg :-
Core 2 Duo processor,
2GB of RAM and
256MB graphics card.
4.Projector
• Microsoft's Surface uses the same DLP Projectors.
• The footprint of the visible light screen, at 1024 x 768 pixels, is actually smaller than the invisible overlapping infrared projection
Features
1.Direct interaction
• Users can actually “grab” digital information with their hands, interacting with content by touch and gesture, without the use of a mouse or keyboard.
2.Multi-touch
• Surface computing recognize many points of contact simultaneously, not just from one finger like a typical touch-screen, but up to dozens of items at once.
3.Multi-User
The horizontal form factor makes it easy for several people to gather around surface computers together, providing a collaborative, face-to-face computing experience.
4.Object recognition
Users can place physical objects on the surface to trigger different types of digital responses, including the transfer of digital content.
Applications
At phone store.
At restaurants to display menu.
Digital interective painting.
Play games and use the internet.
Wireless-transfer pictures from camera to surface and cell phone.
For payment of bills using credit cards.
