That would be interesting, because I'm assuming the robo-arm ball they are currently using works much like the Novint Falcon: navigation through the 3D space is achieved by pushing away and pulling toward the user.
The two-finger pinch and spread pattern that Microsoft Surface uses to "zoom in and zoom out" wouldn't be quite the same experience as the ability to "drive through" the interface with this more lifelike control ball. (however yes, the repetitive strain injuries yet to be discovered are going to be fun to watch for) On Wed, Aug 6, 2008 at 9:03 AM, dave malouf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I wonder what it would be like to demo this on an HP TouchSmart or > similar type multi-touch/direct action desktop device, as opposed to > a moused-system like this one. > > I'm not sure I agree with all of Stews complaints because it is very > unclear from the video the full interaction design model. > > > . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . > Posted from the new ixda.org > http://www.ixda.org/discuss?post=31824 > > > ________________________________________________________________ > Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)! > To post to this list .......
