Microsoft Technologies Available for Licensing
This is pretty amazing. We are making quite a few technologies available for others to build products with. I think most of them come via Microsoft Research. See https://microsoftipventures.com/ for information on how to license them. Business Week has a good article about it too. As of today (May 4, 2005), here is the list of technologies that are available.
Microsoft Biometric ID: Digitally Signed Tamper-Proof ID Cards Incorporating Biometric Information
Conference XP: Distance Conferencing, Instruction, and Collaboration Environment
Horizontal Overscan: Broadcasting synchronized data in an analog television signal
LaunchTile: Seamless UI Metaphor for Small Footprint Devices
Updated on 7/15/05: Changed item #2 to say "Microsoft Biometric ID"
