InfoWorld | at | by Mike
Microsoft on Wednesday said it has licensed 3D technology it developed in its research division to a provider of visual content-management software and hardware.
EON Reality Inc., in Irvine, California, is licensing Microsoft's "TouchLight" technology, which allows users to physically interact with 3D visual content by manipulating 3D images on a screen by hand.
The company said it will use the technology as part of its commercial, automotive, aerospace and defense industry product lines. EON Reality sells applications and hardware display systems for viewing and producing 3D content.
