MIX11: Riding the “Jellybean” Kinect lounge chair

On the last day of MIX11 , I had the chance to check out the infamous Coding4Fun project called “Jellybean” which is probably more widely known as the Kinect-driven lounge chair featured during the event keynote . Developed by Clint Rutkas and Dan Fernandez from Microsoft’s Channel9 team and only finished days before the event, the chair is an impressive combination of hardware, software engineering with the Kinect SDK .

Qantas app flies us to “2019″ with Mango WP7 app

At the second MIX11 keynote today, there was no better demonstration of a slice of Windows Phone 7′s evolved “Mango” update features for developers and consumers than the upcoming Qantas application. The Australian airline , who didn’t just want a port of their mobile site , in collaboration with Microsoft challenged themselves to reduce the stress of flying with an experience that looks like something out of a sci-fi movie, with glaring similarities to the idealistic “2019″ Microsoft vision video . Developed by local Australian mobile developer Nick Randolph and designer Shane Morris, collaborating remotely across Sydney and Melbourne, the application seen today came together in a matter of just barely three weeks

MIX11: Microsoft demos Kinect SDK with WorldWide Telescope

Ahead of its imminent release tomorrow, Microsoft today gave a sneak peek of what might be possible with the official Kinect SDK at the MIX11 conference with a brief demo of a new version of the WorldWide Telescope .
