Synaptics Gesture Suite for Windows 8

November 15, 2012

With an increasing number of computer users preferring handheld devices for their daily computing needs and the constraints inherent to such devices, gesturing for providing interactivity assumes greater importance over traditional peripherals like the keyboard and mouse. Difficulties in using screen based keyboards are not difficult to see if you are one of those veteran users of handheld computers. Unlike keyboards, gesture suite is not a device. It is a piece of software that needs to be integrated into the operating system, and therefore has to be compatible with it. Therefore, companies that produce the software, work closely with OS companies as well as hardware manufacturers. Synaptics is one of the better known companies that have built a reputation for producing quality software for gestures, and are known to have worked closely to make their Gesture Suite for Windows 8 compatible with the newest operating system from Microsoft.

Synaptics Gesture Suite for Windows 8

Synaptics Gesture Suite for Windows 8 is one well known proprietary product to have hit the market in a big way. The software was produced after a detailed analysis that included studies pertaining to workflow, photo viewing habits and music listening, besides activities that include reading emails and making presentations.

While convenience is one of the reasons why you may want the Synaptics Gesture Suite for Windows 8, there are other equally good reasons that make it worthwhile to be in your computer. And foremost are: durability, accuracy, experience and display integration. Unlike other manufacturers, Synaptics uses capacitive sensors over resistive touch screens. The advantages therefore are you get stunning optics with the screen staying brighter and crisper. You can count upon the device to produce not even the minimum distortion.

Another reason why Synaptics find favor with users is they are accurate and that is because of the technology that is exclusive to Synaptics Gesture Suite that uses two dimension transparent capacitive technology which gives an accurate position for the X and Y coordinates that are so very important in gesture operations.

The use of Synaptics is not however limited to handheld devices like the iPad. In fact they support, or are designed to support notebook computers and PCs as well. Their usage is limited only by the user’s imagination and how well they are integrated with computers. If you are already using handheld devices you may be aware of some of the gestures that give you a richer experience. In case you are going to use it for the first time with Windows 8 as the OS, please read further to know how user-friendly Synaptics Gesture Suite is. Here below are some gestures you may want to try.

Right Edge Swipe, Top Edge Swipe, Left Edge Swipe, Two-finger rotate, Two-finger Scrolling, Two-finger pinch zoom, Three-finger flick, Four-finger flick, Linear scrolling, ChiralScroll (Trade Marked) and Momentum – another trademarked product. Each has its own benefits – smooth transition, trackball-like motion for gaming convenience, large digital images for spreadsheets, circular motion, file and font listing, and the ability to move screen without moving the pointer.
