we're gonna go one step further because we're going to take this 3d imagery all the content we are treating and enable it through a 3d control that you can embed inside your applications I guess that's what I'm showing you here today okay so let me play with this low hmm let's see if there are some hotels here maybe I can you can go along their hotels maybe I can go explore a little bit before I go with it now this takes the idea of going and visiting a city to a whole new level you can see how beautiful this imagery is this is built using cameras that we have built ourselves with some amazing optics this is very very high resolution imagery you can see all the details and these details actually you know become really interesting when you really think about interacting with the real world you know here's a beautiful building here meet again Oh beautiful this and dollars and basketball codes so you can see how you know this is beautiful imagery can actually provide a canvas for a whole lot of interesting things so let's see what are some interesting isn't that we can do now you know one of the things about the real world and especially waiting to look at the real world in this amazing way is that it really starts begging the question that you know I've had lots of questions I'm going to visit the lens here I'm going to visit some really beautiful architecture some churches there and the question it pops to your head hey who designed this thing now normally a user would have to change from this application go to a browser type in Valencia type in whatever little context they can put in but reality is the user is looking at your appt at a particular object you know wouldn't it be nice if they could just say who is the architect folks what you see here is that we've taken a whole lot of steps we've taken a whole lot of steps away from a user and we've you've allowed you to create an unbounded amount of knowledge right into your applications because I could have asked a different question which would have a gain bond to the Bing platform and it would have returned with an entity which best relates to what you're looking at so so let's let's keep going so I've decided that Valencia is indeed a very nice place so I'm going to visit it so I'm gonna go ahead and add Valencia to my itineraries now while I was stabbing at the water cooler this friend of mine said that they had some of the best food when they were in Valencia I said well that's great and what does he do he reaches into his wallet and he gives me a card now this is a little analog artifact that he brought from Valencia now if I go put this into my if I go and put this into my wallet I'll probably lose it a week later and I've definitely will not find it when I'm in Valencia so let's see if we can do something better let me use some of the eyes functionality in the Bing platform and and scan this this part which I can then use later so I go ahead and scan it so using the OCR capability that is available through the Bing controls you can now scan the information which is wonderful except that I don't speak Spanish so let me see if I can do something a little bit more interesting great so now using so now using the OCR capability Bing platform and the translator capability I've combined those two things and now let me go ahead and save this later so that pan am in Valencia I won't forget it add this idea for dinner to my itinerary great so now this information which existed in an analog artifact is now saved with my itinerary available for me when I'm in Valencia
