Reimagining the Future of Your Desktop, in 3D

Bumptop and Shock Desktop 3D provide a way to organize your desktop files and applications in three dimensions.

The desktops treat applications and files almost like they were
dice. You can pick one up and toss it across the desktop. When it runs
into other files, the files tumble, fall and scatter across the screen
utilizing life-like physics simulations.


Gather a bunch of like files together, and you can organize them
into stacks and push them aside. Much like your actual desktop, where
you can have stacks of paper and books, it actually makes it quite easy
to be as organized or disorganized as you’d like. A video demonstration
of the invitation only desktop BumpTop is below:
