Global Market of Surface Computing Systems Along With the Status and Size for Forecast 2017-2022

The world is quite familiar with the concept of GUI (Graphical User Interface) and a GUI along with a computer that presents information to the user on horizontal surface screen (sized in dinner table) and prompts the user to use it, without any mouse and keyboard, with a touch.

A surface computer system is a computer that interacts with operator through an ordinary object instead of through monitor, keyboard and mouse. The commands are input through the use of bare hands by touching or dragging the surface screen of designed interface. In other words, the surface of a computer is commonly a smooth horizontal or vertical screen where users can interact with the computer system. It uses the fingers’ electrical stuff to detect the touch.

Some key features of Surface Computing Systems are;

·         Direct Interaction – User can drag/ grab the digital information with their hands by touch and gesture.

·         Multiuser – Surface computing has a 360-degree user interface and 30-inch reflective surface.

·         Multi-touch – Unlike a mouse which has only one cursor, Surface computing has multi-touch ability to contact multiple points with an interface.

·         Object Recognition –Object recognition states the ability of surface computing to recognize the presence and orientation of marked objects positioned on top of it.

  

In the first instance, a surface computer system market  designed by the Microsoft Corporation in 2007 which received a huge media attention due to its unique operation of multi-sensitive touch interface system. In 2012, Microsoft Corp. renamed this product from Surface to “Microsoft PixelSense.
