If you have seen MIX 2010 keynotes, remember when Bill Buxton spoke on Natural User Interfaces. As an example, an immersive digital painting application was shown off. It is a Microsoft Research Project named “Project Gustav”.
Channel9 invited guys behind Project Gustav and made this cool video demonstrating the awesome tablet PC painting application.
More on Project Gustav:
“Project Gustav is a realistic painting-system prototype that enables artists to become immersed in the digital painting experience. It achieves interactivity and realism by leveraging the computing power of modern GPUs, taking full advantage of multitouch and tablet input technology and our novel natural media-modeling and brush-simulation algorithms. Project Gustav is a great example of how Microsoft’s research efforts are leading to exciting new technologies to support creativity.”
