Today, Intel\'s customer computing General Motors Kirk Skaugen introduced customer computing at the Intel Developer Forum, he details the company\'s upcoming Haswell computing platform and its focus on gestures and sounds for new perceptual computing technologies such as touch
Skaugen first talked about Intel\'s commitment to user testing, saying the company interviews 220,000 people a year.
He pointed out that in the recent test of daily tasks such as the search network, 80% of the time, the user chose to touch the keyboard and mouse.
He then played a video of some of the interviews where users said they liked swiping and touching the screen very much.
Most users in the video, however, say they prefer keyboard typing.
\"Since CES and Computex and this [we have done the survey again and again]touch]
\"It is being tested from the chart,\" he said . \".
Skaugen said Intel is investing in improving the capacity and quality of touch screens.
He also said he expected the increment between touch and non-touch
The touch notebook costs about $100.
With the Haswell CPU, Intel intends to double the battery life of today\'s ultrabook, said a full day of battery life and wireless ChargingHe.
Skaugen also said that Intel is committed to eliminating all wires and allowing users to charge wirelessly. he said.
Using Haswell not books, users will be able to charge their peripherals (
Mobile phone, mouse, etc)
They can be wireless when they are close to the laptop.
Voice Commander skaugen then talked about the dragon assistant beta that will be available on Ultrabook.
The first pc oem to adopt this design is Dell and its XPS 13, and other vendors will get white boxes to learn how to use this software on their laptops.
The software is particularly notable because it works offline and does not require access to the cloud to explain what you said.
Skaugen also announced the Intel Perceptual Computing SDK Beta, a free development kit that enables features such as face and finger tracking, 2D/3D augmented reality, and speech recognition.
The kit will be downloaded today, he said.
SDK supports a new feature called close-
Can identify how far the fingers and hands are from the screen for depth tracking.
It also provides 7 Signature Facial analyses so that the system is not fooled by holding pictures in front of the screen.
Gesture control sskaugen then presents the infrared gesture tracking camera for the Creative Lab, which will be open to developers starting next month and will be open to the public on 2013.
Using this kit, he shows how gesture control powers educational software like an interactive solar system model, and games like the Harry Potter method app.
Then, Ultrabook talked about the proliferation of Ultrabook, saying that there are 70 models on the market at present, and 40 Touch models are about to be listed.
He also said that the current Super book costs less than $600.
In 2013, he said, there will be more than 140 Ultrabook units in the market.
He then showed a NEC Lavie Ultrabook weighing just 868G (1. 91 pounds).
Intel\'s identity protection technology will help make e-commerce payments simple and secure, he said.
Because the system knows who you are, he says, you don\'t have to answer so many security questions on your favorite website.
\"Notebooks and Ultrabook are colluding with smartphones and tablets,\" he said . \".
He talked about the proliferation of Ultrabook converters such as Dell XPS Duo 12 and IdeaPad Yoga.
He said that Intel, by providing convertible devices to dozens of users around the world, found that 44% of users want convertible devices, 22% want tablets, and 31% want to bring
Haswell PreviewSkaugen then talked about Haswell\'s improvements, including the ability to support 4 k displays, the ability to support DirectX, and full-day support.
The graphics of the processor, he said, will support the so-called \"collage Display\", which allows you to use three physical displays as a large virtual display.
Haswell will also support multiple levels of graphics with different execution levels to improve and reduce graphics performance.
Haswell will support SmartConnect, he said, and SmartConnect will get your email and social network updates even if your notebook is asleep.
\"It\'s not just light,\" he said of the new platform . \". The new anti-
Theft technology will allow you to lock your lost laptop with hardware so that no one has access to your data.
Haswell superbooks will also use a variety of location services (3G, 4G< Wi-Fi, etc)
Help you find the lost device.
Wattage and power management in Haswell (
Fourth generation Intel Core series)
The typical Ultabook CPU will be from 17 watts to 10 watts.
Intel will do this by wrapping the chipset as part of the processor package.
This will double the battery life of the system, Skaugen said.
Intel will target these lower
CPUs can be converted because they are thinner and lighter than traditional laptops. Adaptive All-in-
OnesSkaugen talks about a whole new categoryin-
A desktop called \"adaptive all\"in-
Laptop with removable screen, you can fold flat or walk around the house.
He showed the Sony VAIO Tap 20, a big screenin-
A flat-panel fold with a touch screen that can be carried with you so that families can come together and use other public apps.
