Microsoft;s healthcare leaders already are contemplating about how the freshly introduced Surface two,
Microsoft Office 2007 Pro Serial Key, Xbox,
Microsoft Office Pro 2007 Product Key, Xbox Live plus the Kinect sensors might be included into healthcare programs.(It;s been a even though given that I;ve blogged about Microsoft;s Well being Options Group. That unit, under Corporate Vice President Peter Neupert, could be the 1 overseeing HealthVault and Amalga, amongst other items.)Bill Crounse,
Office 2007 Pro Serial clave, Senior Director of Worldwide Health for Microsoft blogged concerning the Surface two on January six. He stated he has become working with the Surface group for the previous couple of months to develop a “vision setting video” on scenarios for that Surface 2.0 in the healthcare space.Crounse stated he could envision clinicians collaborating with patients on wall-mounted versions of the $7,600 Surface 2.0 tables. Physicians also could use these devices to share more easily patient information, such since the results of a fetal ultrasound. (In other words,
Microsoft Office 2007 Pro Plus Serial, the Surface two.0 could act as a 40-inch, multitouch display.)Crounse mentioned he also sees possible healthcare programs for a variety of consumer-focused Microsoft technologies down the road. Again, from his post:“I also predict down the line that we’ll be seeing some ‘mashups; combining Surface with attributes of Kinect, Xbox, Xbox Live, Avatars, and possibly Microsoft Lync or Windows Reside. I’ve always maintained that the digital, flat-sceen Internet connected device in our living rooms (our television) would 1 day become the gateway to all kinds of new services and entertainment.”Hmmm. I;m not so sure about animated Kinect avatars in healthcare… Seems a little too much like Clippy revisited to me. I can see Lync;s audio/video conferencing playing a role, however….What;s your take? Any other vertical markets you see adopting Surface two.0, Xbox and/or Kinect sooner rather than later?Update: My ZDNet colleague Manan Kakkar found an interesting Microsoft patent application earlier this year that shows Microsoft;s been pondering about potential links between wellness and gaming. (His post makes me wonder whether social gaming will figure in Microsoft;s future healthcare plans,
Office Pro Plus 2007 Activation, at the same time.)
