You can use MultiTouchVista HID driver to emulate touch input and interact directly.

Silverlight 5 is released and no mention on Channel 9. Sad, very sad

Can I ask why are there 5 cameras and not 4? Because it is simple to divide rectangle in 4 parts, but not 5.  Is there any special purpose for 5th camera? Or they are all equal?

Hi acuis,
No, MultiTouchVista SDK is not Surface SDK. Sorry if I made you think so.
What I wanted to say is that MultiTouchVista is a class library that will allow you to develop multitouch application. It has API like Surface API.


-rlevy, great session!!!  I wish I could be there. Sadly you didn't showed how to use Vision system. Is it possible to develop custom tags?

If you interested in NUI technology, but for any reasons don't have access to Surface you can look at MultiTouchVista project on Codeplex. It is open source project that is similar to Surface SDK. It also has a device abstraction layer, so you can implement your own "input provider" to support your hardware.
Just visit http://www.codeplex.com/MultiTouchVista to download the bits. There is also a quick video tutorial of how to build your own application.
Also visit NUIGroup forum (http://nuigroup.com/forums) to communicate with other people who is interested in "changing the world"

How to download this video? Silverlight video stream is dead slow and buffers after every second

How about WPF control? I mean REAL WPF contol. Not WebBrowser or WinForms interop.

In early 2007 you will start to see NATs sold with the Vista logo. Additionally, some of my colleagues are working on a downloadable NAT testing tool that will tell what classification of NAT you have, and how well it works with Vista. This makes it possible for anyone to test their own NATs. This NAT evaulation tool will be released someone in the next few months.

It's March already. In germany there is only 2 routers available with Vista Logo. And they cost about 300€. Not very home friendly

Is this testing tool already available for download?

Will there be a Sparkle CTP Refresh for a WinFX CTP Feb.?
I have 4 computers, but none of them is Pentium 4 So I get every time exceptions.
