Microsoft Surface offers a large user interface with a unique data gathering system, used for gathering data based on interaction with multiple users.

The traditional way of interaction with digital content has been replaced by the Microsoft Surface, as the user does not need a mouse or keyboard.

In order to identify various objects such as shapes, fingers and tagged items, the Microsoft surface uses image recognition as well as cameras in the infrared spectrum. This is processed with the help of a computer and interaction can be displayed by rear projection. However, Microsoft Surface is a unique experience due to its four key capabilities; theMulti-user experience, Object Recognition, Multi touch and direct interaction.

The direct interaction reveals digital information pulled from multiple users and interactions by gesture as well as touches on screen. The large horizontal display is about 30 inches in size, which faciliates interaction of multiple users. The Multi-touch capability reveals the dozens of the contact points at the touch screen through which the Microsoft Surface can respond to many multiple touches at a time. With the object recognition feature, users can put various physical objects on screen to trigger digital responses.
