Microsoft Surface, the first in a new category of surface computing products from Microsoft that breaks down traditional barriers between people and technology, will be featured at SIGGRAPH 2007, the 34th International Conference and Exhibition on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques held 5-9 August 2007 at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, California, USA.
“This is just one of many SIGGRAPH opportunities to experience cutting-edge technology – for products both months and years away,” stated Joe Marks, SIGGRAPH 2007 Conference Chair from Walt Disney Animation Studios. “In fact, surface computing in its early stages was showcased at previous SIGGRAPH’s, and we’re very excited to feature the technology in its market-ready form in San Diego.”
SIGGRAPH 2007 will bring an estimated 25,000 computer graphics and interactive technology professionals from six continents to San Diego, California, USA for the industry’s most respected technical and creative programs focusing on research, science, art, animation, gaming, interactivity, education, and the web from 5-9 August at the San Diego Convention Center.
