Microsoft's Envisaging Labs, home to Surface, digital whiteboards and goggles that certainly weren't made by Google.

on Jun 21 2012 1:07PM

Envisioning Labs. Where the future is full of touchy-feely screens.

The laser-sensor screen is used to sell the Microsoft's tech-filled future.

Microsoft's Surface

OfficeTalk. You scared, Zuckerberg?

Tiny screens. This fits in the palm of your hand.

Big screens. Like three tablets glued together.

Don't touch the prototypes.

A mouth plate that lets users command a mouse. With. Their. Tongue.

Mini projectors like these will within five years be in every new mobile phone, Microsoft says. They'll be cheap too.

The blue pad is a replacement for a mouse or keyboard, strapped to your arm.

A digital whiteboard. Everyone uses whiteboards, Microsoft says.

The hanging garderns are popular installations in the building.

Envisioning Labs. Where the future is full of touchy-feely screens.
