Touché: A very interesting touch-sensing technology developed by Disney

The next apparent stage in touch-sensing technology is under development at one of the most unlikely of places, the Disney Research labs. While such technology can have wide applications in the entertainment business, what Disney is developing here seems to go beyond just that. Research carried out under the Touché program has produced a capacitive, touch-sensing technology that can work and react to more information, as compared to existing technology used in consumer electronics.

MIT research produces self-sculpting sand

MIT research produces self-sculpting sand

Researchers at MIT’s Distributed Robotics Laboratory claim to have developed an algorithm that helps tiny components, called “smart sand”, to self-assemble as mimic another object. These researchers were able to demonstrate this algorithm by designing cubes of about 10 millimeters, fitted with very basic microprocessors, and magnets on four of their sides. Using this apparatus, the team has been able to work with complex, but two-dimensional shapes.

Microsoft Windows 8’s UI design leans heavily on touch input.

Microsoft Windows 8’s UI design leans heavily on touch input.

As we have all been expecting, Microsoft has come out in public with what their system developers have been working on. The next version of Windows is being designed to not only run on two different architectures, but across devices that have varying screen size, pixel density and input methods. Windows 8 will support x86 architecture that will cover desktop and laptop computers; whereas native support for ARM architecture is meant for smaller devices like netbooks and tablets. Developing such a versatile operating system may turn out to be a tall order for Microsoft; however, in all fairness the UI demos showcased are quite impressive.
