1.I'm really, really excited to be here today, because I'm about to show you some stuff that's just ready to come out of the lab, literally, and I'm really glad that you guys are going to be amongst the first to be able to 今天能来到这里我非常非常激动， 因为我会马上给大家展示一些刚从实验室新鲜出炉的成果， 毫不夸张，而且我非常高兴你们能第一时间 2.see it in person, because I really, really think this is going to change -- really change -- the way we interact with machines from this point on. 亲眼看到它，因为我真的，真的认为这将改变 －真的改变－从此以后我们与机器互动的方式。 3.Now, this is a rear-projected drafting table. It's about 36 inches wide, and it's equipped with a multi-touch sensor. Now, normal touch sensors that 现在注意，这是一张从背面投影的工作台。它大约36英尺宽， 配备有一个多点触摸感应器。现在注意，一般你们看到的触摸感应器， 4.you see, like on a kiosk or interactive whiteboards, can only register one point of contact at a time. 好比在自动终端机或交互白板上， 只能一次注册一个接触点。 5.This thing allows you to have multiple points at the same time. 而这个东西可以让你同时有多个接触点。 6.They can use both my hands, I can use chording actions, and I can just go right up and use all 10 fingers if I wanted to. 它们能感应到我的双手，我可以做拨弦的动作， 如果我想的话我可以就这样用十指。 7.You know, like that. 像这样。 8.Now, multi-touch sensing isn't completely new. 多点触摸感应不是一项完全新的技术。 9.I mean, people like Bill Buxton have been playing around with it in the '80s. 像Bill Buxton一些人在80年代就已经小试一把。 10.However, the approach I built here is actually high-resolution, low-cost, and probably most importantly, very scalable. 但是，我的方法事实上是高分辨率， 低成本，而且可能最重要的，扩展性非常强。 11.So, the technology, you know, isn't the most exciting thing here right now, other than probably its newfound accessibility. 所以，你知道，这项技术不是最激动人心的， 可能除了它的新发现的易接近性。 12.What's really interesting here is what you can do with it, and the kind of interfaces you can build on top of it. So let's see. 这里真正有意思的是你能借助它做什么， 和基于它你能建造的那种界面。所以我们来看看。 13.So, for instance, we have a lava lamp application here. Now, you can see, I can use both of my hands to kind of squeeze together and put the blobs 比如，我们有一个熔岩灯程序在这里。现在，你能看见， 我能用我的两只手去挤，让泡泡合到一起。 14.together. I can inject heat into the system here, or I can pull it apart with two of my fingers. 我能向这个系统注入热量， 或者我能用两个手指把它分开。 15.It's completely intuitive; there's no instruction manual. 它非常的直观；不需要操作指南。 16.The interface just kind of disappears. 操作界面就好像消失了一样。 17.This started out as kind of a screensaver app that one of the Ph.D. students in our lab, Ilya Rosenberg, made. But I think its true identity comes out here. 这个起初是作为屏幕保护程序的，它由实验室里的博士生之一， Ilya Rosenberg做的。但是我觉得它的特性在这里表现得很鲜明。 18.Now what's great about a multi-touch sensor is that, you know, I could be doing this with as many fingers here, but of course multi-touch also inherently means multi-user. 一个多点触摸感应器的优势就在于，你知道， 我可以随便用多少个手指， 但是当然多点触摸也自然意味着多用户。 19.So Chris could be out here interacting with another part of Lava, while I kind of play around with it here. You can imagine a new kind of sculpting tool, 所以Chris可以在这儿摆弄熔岩灯的另一部分， 同时我也在这边玩。 你可以想象一种新的制作雕塑的工具， 20.where I'm kind of warming something up, making it malleable, and then letting it cool down and solidifying in a certain state. 好像我可以把什么东西预热起来，让它有韧性了， 然后把它冷却下来，固定成一定形态。 21.Google should have something like this in their lobby. (Laughter) I'll show you something -- a little more of a concrete example here, as this thing loads. Google应该有像这样的东西在他们的大厅里。（笑声） 我再给你们看个东西--在它载入同时，我会举一个更具体的小例子 22.This is a photographer's light box application. 这是一个给摄影师的看片的程序。 23.Again, I can use both of my hands to interact and move photos around. 再一次，我可以用我双手和照片交互，把照片挪来挪去去。 24.But what's even cooler is that if I have two fingers, I can actually grab a photo and then stretch it out like that really easily. 但是更神奇的是如果我用两个手指， 我可以抓住一张照片并且像这样非常容易地把它放大。 25.I can pan, zoom and rotate it effortlessly. 我可以毫不费力地移动，伸缩并且转动。 26.I can do that grossly with both of my hands, or I can do it just with two fingers on each of my hands together. 我可以用我的两只手一起地这样做， 或者我可以只用两个手指，每只手分别一个。 27.If I grab the canvas, I can kind of do the same thing -- stretch it out. 如果我抓住画布，我可以同样地把它放大。 28.I can do it simultaneously, where I'm holding this down, and gripping on another one, stretching this out like this. 我可以同时按住这个， 而且握住另一个，把这个放大像这样。 29.Again, the interface just disappears here. 再一次，界面在这里不存在了。 30.There's no manual. This is exactly what you expect, especially if you haven't interacted with a computer before. 没有使用说明。这完全是你期望的， 尤其是如果你从前没有操作过计算机。 31.Now, when you have initiatives like the 100 dollar laptop, I kind of cringe at the idea that we're going to introduce a whole new generation 现在，要是你有初级的设备，比如100美元的笔记本电脑 要向大家介绍全新的与以往传统鼠标--窗口操作界面不同的概念， 32.of people to computing with this standard mouse-and-windows pointer interface. 我挺紧张的 33.This is something that I think is really the way we should be interacting with machines from this point on. (Applause) Now, of course, I can bring up a keyboard. 我认为这将真正是我们与计算机交互的方式 从今以后。（鼓掌） 当然，我可以打开一个键盘。 34.And I can bring that around, put that up there. 而且我能随意摆放，放在上面这儿。 35.Now, obviously, this is kind of a standard keyboard, but of course I can re-scale it to make it work well for my hands. 很明显，这是一个标准键盘， 但是当然我能缩放它以适合我手的大小。 36.And that's really important, because there's no reason in this day and age that we should be conforming to a physical device. 这很重要，因为在当今这个时代没有理由 我们应当屈就一个设备。 37.That leads to bad things, like RSI. 那会导致不好的事情，比如肢体劳损。 38.We have so much technology nowadays that these interfaces should start conforming to us. 我们如今有太多科技而 这些设备应当开始顺应我们。 39.There's so little applied now to actually improving the way we interact with interfaces from this point on. 从这一时刻起运用到改善人机互动 少之又少 40.This keyboard is probably actually the really wrong direction to go. 键盘也许不是个好法子 41.You can imagine, in the future,as we develop this kind of technology, a keyboard that kind of automatically drifts as your hand moves away, 试想未来随着科技进步 会有一种跟着你的手移动 42.and really intelligently anticipates which key you're trying to stroke with your hands. 并能预测你输入的键盘 43.So -- again, isn't this great? 很棒吧？ 44.Audience: Where's your lab? 观众：你的实验室在哪儿？ 45.Jeff Han: I'm a research scientist at NYU in New York. Jeff Han：我是纽约大学的研究员 46.Here's an example of another kind of app. I can make these little fuzz balls. 接下来的是另一种应用程序。我能整出些绒毛球 47.It'll remember the strokes I'm making. Of course I can do it with all my hands. 这些球会记住我的抚摸动作。当然了，我能用双手来做 48.It's pressure-sensitive, you can notice. 正如你们看到的，这是压力感应的 49.But what's neat about that is, again, I showed you that two-finger gesture that allows you to zoom in really quickly. Because you don't have to switch to a hand tool 绝妙的地方是，我已经展示过两指 迅速放大的功能。因为你不必用现实生活中的工具 50.or the magnifying glass tool; you can just continuously make things in real multiple scales, all at the same time. 或放大镜什么的 你能同时让物体连续成倍放大 51.I can create big things out here, but I can go back and really quickly go back to where I started, and make even smaller things here. 我能弄出点大东西，但也可以后退再后退 直到起点，在做出些小不点儿 52.Now this is going to be really important as we start getting to things like data visualization. For instance, I think we all really enjoyed Hans Rosling's talk, 运用到数据可视化领域，这一发明可是非常重要的 比如，Hans Rosling的演讲大家都很喜欢 53.and he really emphasized the fact that I've been thinking about for a long time too: we have all this great data, but for some reason, it's just sitting there. 他着重讲的内容我也思考过很久 我们有庞大的数据，但却被闲置 54.We're not really accessing it. And one of the reasons why I think that is, is because -- we'll be helped by things like graphics and visualization and inference tools. 我们真没怎么用这些数据。我想愿意有一点 因为有图像、可视化界面工具 55.But I also think a big part of it is going to be starting to be able to have better interfaces, to be able to drill down into this kind of data, while still thinking about the big picture here. 但更重要的是我们会有更好的界面 能够钻研深 入像这样的数据，但同时仍能保持对整体的宏观性 56.Let me show you another app here. This is something called WorldWind. 现在，让我 向你们展示另一个应用程序。这个程序叫做"世界风" 57.It's done by NASA. It's a kind of -- we've all seen Google Earth; this is an open-source version of that. There are plug-ins to be able to 是NASA研发的。它就像我们都见过的谷歌地球 这就好像是 它的开源码版本。有附加档能够加载 58.load in different data sets that NASA's collected over the years. NASA多年搜集的各种资料 59.But as you can see, I can use the same two-fingered gestures to go down and go in really seamlessly. There's no interface, again. 但是，如你 所见，我可以使用同样的两指手势 非常迅速的 下潜、进入地球。又一次的，我们看不到操控界面的存在 60.It really allows anybody to kind of go in -- and, it just does what you'd expect, you know? Again, there's just no interface here. The interface just disappears. 这真的能让 所有人，感觉非常地融入那个环境，而且操作就如同你所预期一般 再一次，在这边你看不到操作接口。接口就这样消失了 61.I can switch to different data views. That's what's neat about this app here. 我可以切换 到不同的数据浏览。这就是这个应用程序绝妙的地方。 62.There you go. NASA's really cool. They have these hyper-spectral images that are false-colored so you can -- it's really good for determining vegetative use. Well, let's go back to this. 就像这样。NASA非常的酷。它们有这些超光谱影像 这些影像是 人工成色的，对于决定植物的繁茂程度非常有帮助。让我们回到刚刚那里 63.Now, the great thing about mapping applications -- it's not really 2D, it's kind of 3D. So, again, with a multi-point interface, you can do a gesture like this -- so you can be able to tilt around like that, 地图软件了不起的地方是， 它不只是二维平面，它也可以是三维立体影像。所以再一次，应用多点触控界面， 你可以使用 像这样的手势，所以你可以使画面像这样倾斜， 64.you know. It's not just simply relegated to a kind of 2D panning and motion. 你知道。不 只是受限于简单的二维平面攀移与移动。 65.Now, this gesture that we've developed, again, is just putting two fingers down, it's defining an axis of tilt, and I can tilt up and down that way. 我们已经研 发出了这些手势，像这样，只要放入你的两跟手指， 它界定了倾 斜的轴线，如此这般我就可以向上或向下任意倾斜。 66.That's something we just came up with on the spot, you know; it's probably not the right thing to do, but there's such interesting things you can do with this kind of interface. 这是我们在 这边，刚刚想出来的点子， 也许这不是这样做最好的方法， 但是使用这 种接口，你可以做许多很有趣的事情。 67.It's just so much fun playing around with too. (Laughter) And so the last thing I want to show you is -- you know, I'm sure we can all think of a lot of entertainment apps 就算你什么 都不做，只是玩玩，也会感觉愉快。（笑声） 最后 一件我想要向你们展示的东西是， 我 确信我们都可以想到很多，你可以利用这个东西所做的 68.that you can do with this thing. 娱乐方面的 应用 69.I'm a little more interested in the kind of creative applications we can do with this. 我对于我们 可以利用这东西，所做的创意性应用更感兴趣 70.Now, here's a simple application here -- I can draw out a curve. 现在，这边 有一个简单的程序，我可以画曲线。 71.And when I close it, it becomes a character. 当我将曲线 封闭起来的时候，它就变成一个人偶。 72.But the neat thing about it is, I can add control points. 但是有趣的 事情是，我可以增加控制点。 73.And then what I can do is manipulate them with both of my fingers at the same time. 然后我可以 用我双手的手指同时操控它们。 74.And you notice what it does. 你会注意到 它是怎么做的。 75.It's kind of a puppeteering thing, where I can use as many fingers as I have to draw and make -- Now, there's a lot of actual math going on under here 这就像是操 控木偶一般，这边我可以使用 我的十根手指去画出并做出玩偶。 事实上，在 这表象之下需要很多数学运算， 76.for this to control this mesh and do the right thing. 然后它才能 控制这些图案，并正确的反应。 77.I mean, this technique of being able to manipulate a mesh here, with multiple control points, is actually something that's state of the art. 我的意思 是，在这边这个能够操控图案的技术， 并使用多个 操控点，事实上是属于一种尖端科技 78.It was just released at Siggraph last year, but it's a great example of the kind of research I really love. 这个技术去 年才在计算器图形学会议上公开， 但这是我热爱的研究领域的最好范例。 79.All this compute power to apply to make things do the right things. 所有这些需 要使事情做正确，背后的计算机运算。 80.intuitive things. To do exactly what you expect. 直觉性的事 情。做如你所预期一模一样的事。 81.So, multi-touch interaction research is a very active field right now in HCI. 多点触控互 动研究，现在在人机界面领域非常地活跃。 82.I'm not the only one doing it, there are a lot of other people getting into it. 我不是唯一 一个在做这方面研究的，还有很多其它的人也在这领域钻研 83.This kind of technology is going to let even more people get into it, and I'm really looking forward to interacting with all you guys 而这种技 术，将会让更多人加入这个领域的研究， 我真的非常 期待，跟在场各位接下来几天的互动 84.over the next few days and seeing how it can apply to your respective fields. 看看这技 术，将能如何应用在你们所处的领域 85.Thank you. 谢谢。 |
