ROLI Ltd. - ShellPOC (Shell Proof of Concept)

本项目旨在证明移动的计算设备（MCDs）的“Shell”接口平台的技术可行性和设计概念。通过Seaboard GRAND，ROLI已经证明了市场对高分辨率，高带宽人机界面的需求，这些界面使用了我们行业领先的设计方法和技术。随着每一次发布，MCD的处理速度和效率都有所提高，但它们的触摸输入界面并没有跟上创新的步伐，这一点很重要，因为界面定义了我们与它们的实时交互体验。随着MCDs现在占我们计算时间的比例越来越大，在这一领域取得突破的潜在好处越来越大，变得越来越重要。然而，自从电容式触摸屏成熟以来，创新就被扼杀了。尽管这是工程和设计上前所未有的挑战，但增加MCDs的可供性可以使用户的生活更加舒适、高效和富有表现力，而这正是ROLI希望通过Shell平台实现的目标。我们寻求进一步突破SEA接口技术的界限，并使其适用于MCDs，这需要大量的创新才能取得成功，以满足移动的计算的形式约束和成本要求。这项工作的结果可能会对这家英国公司产生深远的影响，也会对全球的移动的计算行业产生深远的影响。

This project will seek to prove the technical feasibility and design concepts of the ‘Shell’interface platform for mobile computing devices (MCDs). Through the Seaboard GRAND,ROLI has proved a market need for high resolution, high bandwidth human computerinterfaces that make use of our industry-leading design approach and technology. MCDs haveincreased in processing speed and efficiency with every release, but their touch inputinterfaces have not matched this pace of innovation, which is significant because the interfacedefines our lived interaction experience with them. As MCDs now make up an increasinglylarge percentage of our computing time, the potential benefits of a breakthrough in this areaare growing larger and becoming more important. However, innovation has stifled since thematuration of capacitive touch screens. Although an unprecedented challenge of engineeringand design, increasing the affordance of MCDs can make users’ lives more comfortable,productive and expressive, and this is what ROLI wants to achieve with the Shell platform.We seek to further push the boundaries of our SEA Interface technology and adapt it forMCDs, which will require a number of innovations to be successful, in order to satisfy theformal constraints and cost requirements of mobile computing. The results of this work couldhave a profound impact on this UK company, but also the mobile computing industryglobally.
