I came across this video earlier today and thought that it showed an amazing blend of technologies. It is an 11-minute long tech demo of a Microsoft Surface-powered interface for exploring space. For those who aren’t familiar with Surface, it is a touch based interface that is designed to be used on displays that are integrated directly into a table. In this case it results in something right out of Minority Report with some amazing results.
Anyone who is interested in technology and space will immediately want to place an order for this thing. Cost is rumored to be about $8000.
