Intel Says Ultrabooks will Feature Touchscreens and Voice Recognition

  • At CES, Intel promised that “2012 will be the year of the Ultrabook,” reports Mashable.
  • “Future Ultrabooks will have touchscreens and voice recognition, Intel vice president of PC Client Group Mooley Eden demonstrated at CES. Intel showed off several concept Ultrabooks doing things like swiping through a Windows 8 Metro interface via the screen.”
  • “Intel didn’t demo voice recognition, but Nuance’s chief marketing officer, Peter Mahoney, made an appearance to announce a partnership with Intel to put his company’s voice-recognition tech into Ultrabooks,” explains the post.
  • The company also teased gesture control and suggested that real-time language translation is “in the works.”
  • Intel’s concept laptop shows rear touch enabled display for alerts and calendar browsing (see 2-minute video demo).
