2009 Session: Interactive Visualizations from Microsoft Research
Wednesday, 10:15 - 11:05
Track: User Experience
Today’s software can display information in ways we only dreamed of just five or ten years ago. We’ll look at some of the ways Microsoft Research is contributing to these advances, including projects like Photosynth, Image Composite Editor, HD View, and WorldWide Telescope. We'll see how developers can use similar visualization techniques and take advantage of technologies like Virtual Earth’s Silverlight map control, Silverlight’s Deep Zoom feature, and WPF’s Direct3D integration.
Expectations
