Doug Boling will deliver a webcast to talk about integrating gestures in Windows Embedded Compact.

Highly intelligent embedded devices with graphics-based displays face a new challenge.  Today’s users were raised on gesture-based user interfaces and are more likely to swipe at a screen than to try to tap the scroll bar.  This becomes a training issue unless the embedded device can understand that swipe or pinch gesture. Fortunately, Windows Embedded Compact has built-in support for gesture input.  This webcast will cover how your embedded application can interpret gestures to provide a more intuitive user interface.  We’ll also discuss how to enable gestures for the standard controls and how to use the physics engine to get that cool bounce and spring back that users expect.  Reach out and grab some knowledge by attending this example filled presentation!

 eBox-33xxA family of eBoxes are revolutionary compact computing devices built with integrated I/O peripherals common to the desktop PC.  The compact and fanless design is ideal for use in application with limited space and requires wider operating temperature ranges, such as low-cost Point-of-Sale, Thin-Clients, Signage, Industrial-controller, networked appliances and etc.  Due to it's compact size and minimal cost, these eBoxes are ideal hardware platform used by application/device developer to develop Proof-of-Concept application that runs on actual hardware.

The eBox-3310A-MSJK Windows Embedded Compact 7 Jump Start kit is developed to help developer ease the learning curve to engage in Windows Embedded Compact development.  This jump start kit is designed to work right out of the box with preconfigured software and step-by-step how-to guide to work through different learning exercises.
