While the Microsoft Surface Table has been slow to hit major markets since its launch in 2007, the product offers plenty of promise for medical and healthcare applications.
A couple of examples:
VitraView by InterKnowlogy
This application allows doctors and patients to review surgical procedures, document procedures, and personalized medical information pulled from Microsoft Healthvault. Developed by Interknowlogy.
Patient Consultations on MS Surface
Developed by Infusion, this tool provides a platform that facilitates patient and healthcare provider communications during medical consultations. The app was named as one of the 11 Killer Apps for Microsoft Surface by Fast Company.
Microsoft Office Labs releases “vision of the future” videos every six months or so. Vision 2019 was launched a few days ago.
While much of the technology is Microsoft-centric (someday everyone will have a Surface table), the concepts are insightful and cool. Enjoy.
