Microsoft announced an all-in-one PC called Surface Studio and alongside it a strange new accessory called the Surface Dial.

Microsoft's new collapsible all-in-one desktop PC, the Surface Studio, is made for designers and optimized for the new "Creators Update" to Windows 10.

The dial pad connects wirelessly to the Surface Studio, but it also works with the Surface Book and the Surface Pro 4.

When the Dial is placed on the Studio's screen, a radial menu pops up all around it. Different color or brush options might pop up, for example, when a painting app is on screen — presumably, other apps can create custom menus as well. It can also be used to navigate and pan around an image. 

Surface Dial is a completely new way to interact with technology. Store, customize, access, navigate, and reimagine physical tools in the digital world—from concept to creation.

With Surface Dial in one hand and Surface Pen in the other, you can unlock your creativity with easy access to shortcuts, controls, drawing tools, and more.
