11-18-19 Microsoft surface


I was in my N-100 class and we talked about the new Microsoft Surface and thought it was such a cool technology and wanted to find out more. I went to Google and found information about it. The surface is a multi-touch product produced from Microsoft which allows one user or multiple users to use it by using a “natural hand gestures.” A person can scroll through pictures, order from a menu, place objects on the screen and it will interact with the device. If you place a camera on the surface it can get information and put it on the screen. The Microsoft surface in the future could help to improve the communication and be able to deliver more accurate information to customers. Microsoft Surface has four main capabilities which are direct interaction, multi-user experience, multi-touch, and object recognition. I think in the future the Microsoft Surface could possibly eliminate the jobs of a waitress because a person could order from the Surface, but there would need to be a person to bring out the food and drinks. I think the Microsoft Surface will be quickly becoming very popular and many business restaurants, and possibly people will be using the Microsoft Surface. On gizmodo.com I found that the price of a Microsoft Surface is $10,000.
