Project Omniverse

Off I go,

I have given it a name and made it official. So what is it? Well, It's kind of a desktop replacement for Windows 7.

Here is my description as of now:
A desktop replacement software that is optimized for Natural User Interface (NUI) aka Multi-Touch screens. It should be able to deliver all media available in modern computers in a intuitive way without being fixed with normal Window based systems. As the name suggests it can involve all parts of physics or dimensions as it feels fit just to bring the user a natural way of working with the media.

On this project I will depart from my normal standards where I aim to make it OS independent and hardware independent. But since this is such a big undertaking it will be aimed directly to Windows 7 with Directx 10.1 or higher. I hope I can backtrack on this later but I just don't want to be fighting with API's and spend more time with UI/Hardware design.

The whole project will be open-source and the hardware drawings will be available as I make them.

This will be a learning path for me to get going with C++/DirectX, 3D Math, Electronics and of course LASERS!! :) So you will see lots of beginner mistakes, and wonder why in "insert your religions god name here"'s name he is doing that. Well, don't worry. I enjoy making mistakes cause that's the only way I remember what I've done :)

Bye for now
