Microsoft Pixel Sense took name of table touch Samsung

 

Microsoft Surface took the name of the table a touch of Samsung.PixelSense is the new name of technology shown in 2011 in partnership with Samsung.

On Monday, Microsoft unveiled two tablets that were dubbed Surface. Those who follow the company news, however, must have estranged: the IFA 2011, the same company showed a touch-sensitive LCD panel that bears the same name of the youngest competitor of the iPhone.

This whole mess is easy to explain: first came the Surface 2.0, which is the interface used in SUR40, the same panel that Samsung can turn a table a touch and that goes for over $ 10,000.
 
The problem is that Microsoft's tablets were ready and they needed a name - Surface and proved the most suitable. What company do? "Stole" the name of the lesser known technology, put the latest machine and renamed the old product to PixelSense.

On the Microsoft Surface, which already has full information of the two tablets, there is even a small redirector that takes the customer to the uninformed PixelSense. Despite the name of the loan, the company did not disclose if there are similarities or integrations between the two devices.

You may have noticed that from time to time, always comes the news that a patent for a new technology was leaked. Although the majority of them being awesome, those are few we see become reality and come to our homes. However, Microsoft seems to have done so in relation to the Surface.

During the presentation of its new tablet, the company showed the number of entries that the device will have. While some are old acquaintances of the general public - such as USB 2.0, others left everyone in doubt. This is the case of the mysterious space with five metal pins whose function was not explained.
 

However, not long before the personal internet unearthed one of these patents and discover what it is the enigma behind the entrance to the Surface. According to a reader Engadget, it is a new type of wire would be able to provide power and data and to utilize the magnetism to be coupled to the apparatus and maintain the stability of the connection similar to the MagSafe Macbooks.

And do not even need to be a great expert to realize that technology recorded last week is linked to the Surface. Just look at the illustration of the patent and the input format on the tablet to realize that it all fits together.

After development of the line of tablets from Microsoft (Surface), little is known about the processors that will empower gadgets. Today, NVIDIA announced that the Microsoft Surface Windows RT model uses the Tegra processor.

The company still has not specified what processor Tegra will be used in Windows Surface with RT. Expected to be used Tegra Tegra 3 KAI or 3 +, a model that was unveiled recently.

It is too early to comment, although we can already imagine that the tablet will have a good performance thanks to quad-core processor probably NVIDIA. Still, it is important to wait to know what are the exact specifications of the tablet from Microsoft for only then draw conclusions.
