HTML Web interface                                     Showcase and in UI HTML interface                               

Showcase has a simple web server built into it. This built-in Web server allows you to create compelling graphical applications or simple text interfaces that can drive Showcase from any device that can run a Web browser and connect to a computer running Showcase. e.g. iPad, Blackberry, Android Tablet, etc.

Possible uses include trade shows, marketing kiosks, company reception areas.

Try it yourself with the simple cotrols that are installed with Showcase. Open the sample car "Technicon" in Showcase. On the same machine, open a web  browser and goto http://localhost:5555/

Alternatively from Google Chrome on a tablet, navigate to http://x.x.x.x:5555/

Where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the machine running Showcase.

Enjoy!
