Developer Platform At the root is the touch developer platform that exposes touch APIs for any application UI Enhancements Focusing on core scenarios, many parts of the core UI optimized for touch experiences Gestures Multitouch gestures enable consistent panning and zooming in most applications Applications Powerful Multitouch-focused applications to ship separately from Windows 7 Navigating and consuming the Web Reading and sorting email Viewing photos Playing casual games Consuming music and video Navigating files and arranging windows Using Microsoft Office Applications

from our Marketing VP Madeline Pantalone: “It's okay for you to use application for demonstration as long as you are sure to preface it with the phrase: "This is test data only. Products you see may have been created for testing purposes only."

XBOX Kinect (Natal) Motion Based Interface $149.99 Availability: November 4th 40 million Xbox 360 owners RGB camera, three sensors (one depth sensor, one motion sensor, and one multi-array microphone) tracks full-body movement, facial expression, and voice with precision Navigate the entire Kinect Hub interface on your Xbox 360 without touching a conventional 360 controller. While you're watching a movie, you can verbally instruct the Xbox to stop, fast- forward, rewind, exit out, etc. by calling out easy commands like, "Xbox. Fast- forward." or "Xbox. Pause.“ Kinect sensor bar scans and monitors 1 million points on the body

The Bad News: Not many applications at launch Not really any applications at launch; just games “little kid games…” No exposed API at launch, plus the legal restrictions of “hacking it” No building your own apps No integration with any of the Microsoft Stack No vertical solutions ….for the immediate future XBOX Kinect (Natal)
46
Conscious and non-conscious Interfaces High fidelity EG acquisition device No conductive gel, etc. Non-invasive Use Case Examples: Conscious: mind manipulation of objects Non-Conscious: Ranking music First target market: gaming $300!!!

C++ Header files and Import Libraries …which means… Wrap the SDK in managed C++ thereby exposing a the API to a C# application It ships with sample C# code That is very powerful… Emotiv SDK
49
Multi-Touch Capable Common gestures of touch Gesture Capable Motion Based Interface Tracking of full-body movement, facial expression, and voice with precision Neural Capable Conscious and non-conscience interfaces Non Invasive NUI The Natural User Interface

We are at the Cusp of the NUI computing revolution There are still many “standards” yet to be adopted Multi-Touch computing will become a mainstream aspect of NUI and consequently of software development Paradigm Shift from GUI to NUI (Natural User Interface) Touch capable computing changes the way you design systems and differentiates your applications Shifting from desktop applications to multi-touch based applications will be a cultural change like the mouse was There are other components of NUI other than just touch… Neural & Gesture based interfaces
