BetaNews just published a link about a new toy from Microsoft Surface team – Microsoft’s Sphere. Surface software in the ball. Even though a hardware is not of Microsoft’s origin, software is inherited from Surface project.
You can watch a little presentation about possible application of technology. Fun experience I would say.
It is funny how we spent so many years before finally getting flat screens, and now we are going to “throw it all away”
There was a really interesting video linked in one of the comments on BetaNews. It shows the “opposite” approach to interactive displays, a handheld projector with a virtual pen and motion/position tracking. It is not just miniaturized projector.
