????哈里森與微軟研究院（Microsoft Research）和卡耐基梅隆大學(xué)的一名同事一道開發(fā)了一個移動式互動系統(tǒng)的原型機,。這個名叫OmniTouch的系統(tǒng)可以把包括人體在內(nèi)的任何界面當成屏幕,。OmniTouch與哈里森發(fā)明的另一個人體界面項目Armura都提供了一種新的遙控方式，也就是將人類與媒體的互動融合為一種更簡單的東西——即環(huán)境本身,。
????那么,，遙控的未來會是什么樣子？西蒙稱：“我們需要把新的,、優(yōu)秀的互動技術(shù)和界面設(shè)計融入到遙控器中,，此外還有兼容性、眾包等,。我們絕對需要這些,，因為這些正是消費者希望購買的東西。消費者之所以買我們的產(chǎn)品,，而不是買有線電視的產(chǎn)品,，就是因為他們需要創(chuàng)新。”與此同時,，廠商也會試驗語音,、手勢和觸摸控制功能。而消費者也會在手勢和按鈕之間做出自己的選擇,。至少,，這一次遙控器終于迎來了一次進化，喬?斯丁齊亞諾時代的電視觀眾為了這個進化已經(jīng)足足等了50多年,。

????Together with Microsoft Research and a CMU colleague, Harrison prototyped a mobile interaction system, OmniTouch, that turns any surface, including the human body, into a screen. Both OmniTouch, and another of his on-body interface projects, Armura, offer a new evolution of control—one where human interaction with our media experience dissolves into something much simpler: the environment itself.
????So what this the future of the remote control? "We need to bring great new interaction and interface design to the remote control itself, the compatibility, the crowdsourcing. We absolutely need that because that is what the customer is buying. They demand innovation when they buy our product as opposed to when they buy a cable package," Simon says. Meanwhile manufacturers will experimenting with voice, gesture, and touch and consumers will play, voting for their choice with gestures and buttons on how to put the control in the remote experience. At least finally this is an evolution, one Joe Stinziano's audience has been waiting to hear about for more than fifty years.
