Microsoft Office 2007 Product Key Surface computin

Microsoft is looking to extend its surface-computing work into the spatial-computing arena having a new analysis project known as LightSpace.Andy Wilson, a Microsoft investigation who was important in bringing the Microsoft Surface tabletop to marketplace, is one of the principals behind LightSpace. Wilson and other researchers are set to demonstrate the new challenge the week of October three in the ACM Symposium on Person Interface Software and Technology in New york City. (Microsoft showed off LightSpace internally at its TechFest analysis fair on campus in March.)LightSpace uses several depth cameras and projectors to allow consumers to transfer objects between touch surfaces. The cameras make it appear that people are carrying projected objects within their hands and then “dropping” them onto walls, where they can be manipulated using multitouch gestures similar to those used with the Microsoft Surface tabletop.There is a connection among LightSpace and Microsoft;s Kinect game-sensor technologies. Microsoft researchers envision Kinect helping to make depth cameras cheaper and more popular. According to a newly published whitepaper on LightSpace:“Depth cameras (such as those from PrimeSense1, 3DV, and Canesta) are able to directly sense range to the nearest physical surface at each pixel location. They are unique in that they enable inexpensive real time 3D modeling of surface geometry, making some traditionally difficult computer vision problems easier. For example, with a depth camera it is trivial to composite a false background in a video conferencing application. Microsoft’s Kinect device builds on PrimeSense technology and computes a skeletal model of a player for motion-driven gaming. While such cameras are now rare, the release of Kinect is likely to make depth cameras inexpensive and widely available.”LightSpace attempts to further the notion that “the room is the computer.” (So much for “the network is the computer.”) It also points to a future where all physical surfaces become interactive displays — including the person;s body.Microsoft has been looking for ways to extend its Surface technologies. A couple of years ago, Microsoft researchers showed off a spherical Suface. In 2009, they demonstrated another Surface spinoff known as “SecondLight,” a rear projection-vision surface technologies that allowed end users to undertaking through and beyond the display. (By the way, for you codename hounds,Microsoft Office 2007 Product Key, the Bing Maps on Silverlight challenge at Microsoft happened to be codenamed “FirstLight.”)(Thanks to Microsoft Student Partner Pradeep for the pointer to the LightSpace page.)
