Pictionaire, a new Multitouch Table from Microsoft Research | |
|

| Time: 00:39 EST/05:39 GMT | News Source: 10 | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

A joint project from Microsoft Research and the University of California brings us another touchscreen, mutitouch table-top computing experience. Like a larger version of Surface, the Pictionaire, as its called, is also operated via human touch using gestures made on the tables surface. However, unlike Surface, the camera used features a higher resolution - and its positioned above the computers screen, via a mount on the ceiling. With this setup, the camera can see the items placed on the table and when the item is removed, it can be replaced with a digital version. For example, if you place a keyboard on the table, the Pictionaire will pull up a text-entry box. If you place a sketchbook on the table, a digital version of the page soon appears. You can even do this process in reverse the Pictionaire can project a digitized image onto the real life object, like the digital sketchpad image projected onto a piece of paper so you can trace it back onto the physical page. | ||
