If you’ve ever played Crayon Physics Deluxe on a tablet PC or similar clones on the iPhone and wished you could play it on a giant table, with better physics and more control over the properties, be able to use real life objects and world peace, then the latest Microsoft Surface demo application from Razorfish has almost what you’re looking for. Rumor has it world peace is coming in version two.
Something about watching irregular sized circles roll on irregular shapes makes touch physics games very addictive.

I had to LOL when reading about the world peace feature

I think there is something wrong with the process; So we have a new technology – thats fine. Now, it looks like, that we created something that is useful to that new technology. So the demand comes from that new Technology –
BUT
shouldn’t the demand for a new Technology come from another perspective?
Just asking.

Simplesmente magnífico, vamos aguardar a chegada ao Brasil e principalmente o preço.

For a physicist, that’s quite amazing that computers can do that now!

Wow! I want a surface so much.
This kind of applications are so powerful, but at the same time a kid can understand and handle them!

That is a very nice video and I actually really liked the music, wonder what it was?
