Microsoft 에서 지난 10월 공개한 미래를 향한 컨셉을 소개하는 영상입니다.

영상에서 표현되고 있는 미래는 모두 현존하는 테크놀로지에 기반하고 있다고 하니 이런 시대가 멀지 않은 것 같습니다.

이런 시대에 대응할 수 있는 실력을 쌓도록 매일매일 공부해나갑시다.

 

 

 

Productivity Future Vision (2011)
MS Office Team Productivity Future Vision  (Touch, Wireless, Holograms)
 

Microsoft’s Office team has put out a concept video outlining what it imagines in its long-term future. The Productivity Future Vision demo shows a world dominated by touch and gestures, where smartphones are transparent blocks and tablets, walls, and tables all recognize either touch, voice, or in-the-air gestures. It imagines users physically dragging what they’re working on from device to device and even includes 3D holograms that go beyond the edge of the display.
Other concepts include interconnected augmented reality, such as seeing the choice of hotel through a taxi cab’s window, as well as glasses that translate nearby speech in real time. The aim is to create contextually relevant data available as often as possible.

Microsoft’s Office president Kurt DelBene stressed that much of what’s seen in the demo is either real or actively being studied by Microsoft and others. Voice recognition is common, and Microsoft already has camera-based gestures in Kinect. The smartphone and desk interfaces also bear passing resemblances to Windows Phone, Windows 8, and Surface, suggesting that Microsoft still sees the roots of these platforms surviving into the future.
