Microsoft Natural User Interface displays beyond the tactile

Microsoft Research has been busy this week showing their latest developments in what they call NUI (Natural User Interface) to a group of technology journalists. In this private screening, Steven Bathiche, director of the department responsible and the person behind Surface, some demonstrations have been performed more than interesting.

The Redmond company wants to take a step forward the idea that it is operating commercially and with Kinect, which incidentally, is about to reach the operating system Windows 7, especially in spring. The best thing is that you prove yourself: As you can see the different shows, we introduce projectors, 3D visualization technology, screens that show different content depending on our position, etc.

The video invites us to think of many deployments beyond the games, pointing out that the integration with Windows 8 will be very important. Microsoft also wants to show how you can create 3D models from images taken with a camera, not that it is a technological breakthrough, but if you want us to see how close they are to deploy on Xbox 360.

Thanks to Kinect people can use a representation of his face as an avatar, tell us that it be implemented in the spring. In the following video you can see the polygon recreation movement: Track | Win Rumors
