Pen-Centric Computing

Description

The Microsoft Center for Research on Pen-Centric Computing, which was inaugurated on March 20, 2006, represents a convergence of research efforts in pen-centric computing by the Brown Computer Graphics Group, Microsoft Research, and the Microsoft Tablet PC Product Group. The Graphics Group has been at the vanguard of pen-centric computing for over a decade, having created pen-based interfaces for sketching 3D models, writing music, and creating interactive sketches of mathematics and molecules. During this same period Microsoft was also involved with pen-centric computing, starting with Pen Windows in the early 1990s, and more recently through both its creation of the TabletPC platform and through support of research inside Microsoft and at universities.
