Microsoft Surface is a revolutionary surface-computing platform. Microsoft Surface is a machine built from a standard Windows Vista personal computer and employs a camera-based vision system that lets users grab digital content with their hands and move information between objects with simple gestures and touches. The sophisticated system also recognizes fingers, hands, paintbrushes, tagged objects and a myriad of other real world items. With a 30-inch table-top display, multiple users can get together to interact with digital information and with each other. The rugged tabletop is able to withstand most everything from sticky hands to spilled drinks, and its viewing angle and brilliant display allow a number of users to see the screen while surrounding the table.
Currently, Sheraton Hotels & Resorts is the first major hotel chain to feature Microsoft's Surface in the public spaces of five hotels, which are Sheraton New York Hotel & Towers, Sheraton Boston, Sheraton Chicago Hotel & Towers, Sheraton Seattle, and Sheraton Gateway San Francisco Airport. Sheraton's parent company, Starwood Hotels & Resorts said that it is a pilot program that could become chainwide. Sheraton is offering guests three applications free of charge: gathering information on the local destination, playing music provided by Sheraton, through the Surface's loudspeakers, and finding information about other Sheraton properties.
I think that this product is going to revolutionize the hospitality industry with its innovative technology.
