Abstract:

The Healthcare Industry today is faced with many difficult challenges. Many of these challenges are rooted in the slow and conservative adoption of innovative solutions for fear of high cost, complicated implementations, extensive support and resistance to change. With the release of Microsoft’s Windows 7 operating system later this month, a whole new world of innovation, time to market, TCO and innovation is possible.

Windows 7 along with other impressive Microsoft technologies provides rich, interactive, touch-enabled solution possibilities. InterKnowlogy is a Microsoft partner who expertly designs and implements solutions such as these in the Healthcare and Life Sciences industries. Please join us for interactive discussion and demonstrations regarding some sample solutions using Windows 7 to tackle some of these Healthcare challenges.

Introduction

We are at the Cusp of the touch computing revolution

There are still many “standards” yet to be adopted

Touch computing will become a mainstream aspect of software development

Paradigm Shift from GUI to

NUI

(Natural User Interface)

Touch capable

computing c

the way you

design systems

Shifting from desktop applications to touch based applications will be crucial

UI Gestures

TapFlick/Fling/ScrollPinch/SpreadDrag

UI Gestures – Tap

Think ClickIncorporates MouseDown and MouseUpTap To ActivateOpen / Activate on TapOpen / Activate on ReleaseTap to Select

Alternative to Tap to activateSingle Tap indicates selection

Double Tap indicates activation

UI Gestures – Flick / Fling / Scroll

FlickIncorporate inertia to give user feedback.“Flick” finger in one direction to move items out of the wayFling to Scroll“Flick” finger in the direction you want to scroll.Items Scroll based on the speed of the flick (inertia)Incorporate “Tap to Stop”Slide to ScrollSingle Finger held down and slid in one direction causes scroll

Two Finger Scroll

MacBook

Pro touchpad

UI Gestures – Pinch / Spread

Pinch to ShrinkTwo fingers, thumb and index on one hand, or both index fingersBring the two fingers together to shrinkSpread to EnlargeTwo fingers, thumb and index on one hand, or both index fingersMove the two fingers away from each other to enlargePinch and Spread are always implemented as a pair or gestures

UI Gestures – Drag

Drag to MoveSingle finger held down and slid across the screen.Use to move / position objects on screenDrag and DropIncorporate Tap to selectSlid finger across the screen to drag an “adorner”Release finger to indicate drop

Software Implementations

The first prototype is presented to Bill Gates

2004

A dedicated group is formed,

and more than 85

prototypes are developed

2007

Microsoft Surface is unveiled to the world 

2001

Why WPF?

The GDI & USER subsystems were introduced in Windows 1.0 in 1985OpenGL – Early 90sDirectX – 1995Goal: Overcome the limits of GDI+ & USER with the productivity of Windows FormsTranslation: The power of DirectX and the Developer Productivity of .NET

WPF – how does it work?

Built on Top of Direct 3DConverted to 3D triangles, textures and other Direct3D objects & then rendered by hardwareBenefits of hardware acceleration & performance due to work being off-loaded to GPUs (unlike GDI based systems)Ensures the maximum benefit of new hardware and driversSoftware rendering pipeline as fallback
