Adobe Experience Design CC (Beta) or Adobe XD, is a new creative tool from Adobe for designing high-fidelity prototypes of websites and mobile apps. You can try a new public preview released today of Adobe XD on Windows 10. Why Adobe XD? A well-designed app often starts out with a sketch, a...

Over the next few months, we will feature game creators who are making games using the Unity game development platform. We’ve partnered with the Made with Unity program to showcase some of the amazing, talented game developers out there and how they use Surface to make their games come to life...

Link Removed If design can be said to have one big secret, something that makes designers what they are and distinguishes them from coders, it is sketching. At the same time, it is an easy skill to learn—though not to master—and you have probably been doing it all of your life without realizing...

In our second Link Removed theme week post, Link Removed and Link RemovedLink Removed spend 6+ hours teaching you have to create 3D Windows 10 Universal Windows Platform games with Unit 5... Link Removed Are you looking to build 3D games with Unity 5 for the Windows 10 Universal Windows...

This project is off to a great start and something I think we should keep an eye on... Link Removed I am working on a proof of concept standalone mobile 3D Scanner. Hopefully it will be possible to use a Raspberry Pi2 for this project. I have already posted a video on youtube. And some...

IllumiRoom (http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/illumiroom/) demonstrated how projection mapping can enhance entertainment. RoomAlive (http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/roomalive/) prototyped turning any room into an interactive, augmented experience. In this session, Andy...

Today's Hardware Friday is of a kind I've not seen before. Sure, we've seen the Chat to Hardware, Hardware to Chat projects, but I don't think I've seen that uses Lync and the Unified Communications Web API. Plus I've missing blogging about .Net Gadgeteer projects... :) Exploring the Internet...

C9 Netduino Shield Series - Using Arduino Shields with a Netduino - Part II IntroductionIn our previous article, we examined what an Arduino shield is, how to build a simple custom shield and discussed how to quickly identify shields that are good candidates for a Netduino adaptation versus...

Link Removed is an experimental platform for rapidly prototyping web apps on Windows Azure. anode is built by Microsoft entirely with node.js and uses many great open source modules written by the awesome node.js community around the world. This is not a service. It's an experiment. That said...

This project shows how you can use the Netduino Plus to make a tweeting breathalyzer—a standalone breathalyzer that can post messages about the detected alcohol level to Twitter, using an inexpensive alcohol gas sensor. The Link Removed is an open source electronics platform based on a 32-bit...

Vince Jesus gives Clint Rutkas a tour of the Microsoft Hardware Model Shop (not to be confused with the Link Removed) where napkin doodles become working prototypes and then eventually finished products like the Link Removed. 3D Printers, C&C Machines and Paint Guns are just some of the toys...

(PhysOrg.com) -- Lie detection is coming to a whole new level. Soon we will not have to rely on the work of individual agents to figure out who is just trying to get on a plane and who is a criminal mastermind in the making. Link Removed - Invalid URL Researchers at the University of...

In this video, I interview a couple of LightSwitch team members, Mike Droney (Tester) and Sheel Shaw (PM), as they walk me through a real application that was built for our Admins in order to track hardware assets across the developer division. Mike and Sheel talk about the requirement gathering...

Link Removed is an interactive environment for data analysis and scientific computing that lets you seamlessly connect scripts (in IronPython) with compiled code (in .NET) to enable fast and flexible prototyping. The environment includes powerful and efficient libraries for linear algebra as...

One of my New Year's resolutions is to get more Link Removed on Channel 9. Every time I see Benko at MSR he's playing with the coolest (and often very secret) new toys, and he's always happy to talk about the interesting new things he's working on. You might remember Benko from our Link Removed...

Larry Larsen and Microsoft Research General Manager Kevin Schofield take a tour of Building 99. In this video, the third and final instalment of our MSR tour, we see inside the prototyping and model shop. Link Removed Link Removed
