Working with large domain models just got easier(mindscape.co.nz)

Particularly powerful is being able to show associated entities and filter by eager load graphs. Can't remember what entities are going to be pulled back by a certain load graph? Just filter it and see! read more...

Touchless - A webcam multi-touch SDK(officelabs.com)

submitted by wisemx(8074) 3 years, 7 months ago

That brings us to today, releasing Touchless to the world outside Microsoft, as a *FREE* *OPEN-SOURCE* SDK with a low barrier to entry for developers and users.

I can imagine a variety of great directions to explore using Touchless. Perhaps support for the forthcoming Windows multi-touch API, video chat white-boarding, implementing mouse/game/hotkey/media control, and designing decked out Minority Report style file/media browsers. read more...
