Surface Computing

Surface computing refers to technology that enables users to interact directly with digital content through touch-sensitive surfaces, similar to a large touchscreen. Unlike traditional screens, surface computers recognize multiple touches and gestures, allowing for more natural and intuitive interactions—such as pinching to zoom or rearranging images with your fingers. They can be used for applications like collaborative work, digital signage, or interactive displays, providing a seamless blend of physical and digital experiences. This technology enhances user engagement by making digital interactions more tactile and accessible without needing separate devices like mice or keyboards.
