Surface Computing

Because of taking an advertising class this semester, our project group needs us to make advertising for the surface computing. Then we did some research on the surface computing and we found that this technology is very convenient for people to utilize and communicate. Instead of using a mouse and keyboard, people can easily interact with a touch-sensitive screen. Actually, surface computing is starting to be used in real world applications. The Microsoft Surface is starting to pick up popularity and has been used in various places. According to the CNN news, AT&T became the first retailer to use Surface to help their customers to buy phones. This technology has been used in a wide variety of public venues which included Super Bowl XLIII to help police monitor some criminal incidents.
There is a fantastic demonstration video on YouTube related to the surface computing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtKQNwqNLLk
