Samsung SUR40 for Microsoft Surface now shipping!

This year, the SUR40 won the CES Best of Innovations 2012 award!

The Samsung SUR40 is an interactive multitouch device that is 4-inch thick and has a 40-inch HD LCD screen with gorilla glass bonded to it. It can be used not only as a table but also mounted vertically on a wall or embedded into other fixtures and furniture, creating a dynamic and engaging destination in any environment. Behind the LCD screen is a brand new technology we invented called PixelSense where infrared sensors are placed all across the screen and every single pixel acts like a camera. For more on PixelSense, I suggest reading this blog post from the Microsoft Surface blog and watching the video within the post. The Samsung SUR40 recognizes fingers, hands and other objects – supporting up to 50 points of contact at one time. As mentioned previously, the Samsung SUR40 is powered by Microsoft Surface 2.0.
