CES: Infinity Gaming Table

Again, not here yet but wish it was. Originally brought to market as a Kickstarter campaign, with pledges exceeding $1 million. Arcade 1Up is planning on releasing soon so if this is something that looks interesting to you, you may not have long to wait...

It looks like Hasbro is getting in on the action making available some of its popular games in digital format. One of the neat things with this table design i some fo the feed back and the ability to program in interesting graphics to make the games more fun and interactive.

Of course you lose the ability to touch real cards, dice and tokens but the possibilites of the what can be designed into the games. The tables are networkable in that they can interact with other players playing on remote tables. Nothing has been said about an ability to integrate with other devices types other than tables made by his manufaturer but there is no saying that this cannot be a future addition. 

The cost of the table is $600 so considering its capabilities and the size of the touch screen sounds like a reasonable purchase. See this direct link of a video showing it's capabilities from CNET.

Best private search engines that won’t track you in 2021

Had a customer that is trying to get off of the grid and asked what search engine they could use that won't track them...

Here is a posting I found that lists a couple of options.

CES: Cadillac Air Taxi

One of the problems with shows like CES is that vendors and manufacturers are showing off a lot of prototype sysetems that we still have to wait for. One of those that I wish was here now is Cadillac's eVTOL Air Taxi. I have linked the CNET Road Show posting describing this neat product that has a unique and curiously practical design for a personal aircraft that GM is working to bring to fruition.

The version that they are showing is a single person design but supposedly a two person version is also in the works. Take a look at the Video that is attached to the posting. It will leave you wanting it to be available today!

Microsoft Teams Dynamic View Feature coming in March

At a theater near you, just kidding. Thursday I highlighted the new December release from Microsoft with the Microsoft Teams Feature of Breakout Rooms. Today, I am looking towards the future release of a new Teams feature that allows you to dispaly content side by side with your participant's windows do be able to see content at the same time you are talking to your meeting participants. 

This new feature provides more control over your display view during meetings to enhance the entire experience. Microsoft's intent is to make meeting feel more connected and create better engagement during the meeting. 

In July, Microsoft posted an update of new feature updates and if you want to see the entire list jump over to this posting.
