Desktop Applications

Why desktop ?

Desktop applications can:

Use Win32/COM API .NET API Use almost any languages (C, C++, C#, etc.)

Native libraries and Windows Store Applications

Most of the Windows 7/XP libraries are no more available

Agenda

Enable some of the Windows 8 features

Sensors in desktop applications (WinRT)

Improve your applications with Intel

Perceptual Computing IPP/MKL Media SDK PhoneGap / Cordova

Sensors in desktop applications

Desktop and Sensors

Win32 is a complex API

You need to configure the objects you manipulate Big number of lines of code

Use WinRT instead of COM or Win32

In desktop applications, devices such as sensors, GPS, etc. are available through WinRT and easy to use.
