This is not exactly about Microsoft Surface, but Autodesk Labs (http://labs.autodesk.com/) has been experimenting with adapting Autodesk%u2019s design software to a Multi-Touch Wall device, produced by Perceptive Pixel and invented by researcher and Jeff Han (http://www.ted.com/index.php/speakers/view/id/65).
As you view this demo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7ENumwMohs&eurl=http://designative.info/2008/03/31/look-into-the-future-with-autodesk-labs-multi-touch-wall-part-ii/), imagine that a team of designers stand before a huge screen that acts like an intelligent whiteboard: Autodesk Design Review, you can review each part of a model and interact with it directly. No keyboard or mouse needed. Multi-touch devices have the potential to make design creation and collaboration much easier in the future. { Itamar Medeiros } Information Designer designing clear, understandable communication by carefully structuring, contextualizing, and presenting data and information mobile ::: 86 13671503252 website ::: http://designative.info/ aim ::: itamarlmedeiros skype ::: designative . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
