“A lab that Microsoft has in Cambridge has just reported that they have created a system that not only allows touch interaction like Multitouch technology, but it also happens to allow you to twist, bend, pull and squeeze different parts of the interface in order to make certain things happen.  As one person put it, this is almost like Multitouch on steroids.”

Adaption to wall-mounted and podium-style surfaces

“AT&T …April ...twenty-two different Surface Computers in four of their stores in the country. When people place products on the Surface, information regarding the product will come on the screen. The customer can then directly interact with the Surface in order to change the information that is being shown or to bring up additional information regarding the product on the screen. The customer can even put two products on screen at the same time in order to do an on the spot comparison between the two products before choosing which one they want to purchase.”

Holographic TV

Mid-air Video Displays

3D Display Monitor

Head-mount Displays

Haloscreen Is a holographic

film which displays any image feed through a projector at a specific angle onto a transparent display

How it works Light fed at a specific

angle is displayed all other light is ignored

Pros bright and sharp

image quality - even in brightly lit environments

Any type of projector can be used to cast the image

Accepts all inputs for playback on screen

Cons projector sits on

the floor about 5 feet behind the screen

Expensive

Project video or images into mid-air

Supports JPEG MOV FLASH QUICKTIME Text MORE

Added Capabilities w/installed Software Cursor control

Navigate and interact with simple content

Heliodisplay Video

Needs controlled lighting for best working conditions

Images become less visible under bright lighting

Wind and bright lights interfere with image visibility

image definition and fidelity are inferior to those seen on CRTs and LCDs

Expensive

Idea is to view 3D technology without using glasses

Accomplished by: Taking advantage of

binocular disparity Stereoscopic

imaging Odd Pixel

Columns=Left Eye Even Pixel

Columns=Right Eye Combine the 2 get 3D

image from your brain focusing in on display

Not much leeway in where you need to sit, but you don’t have to stay perfectly erect.

Still a bit blurry Can make you feel

nauseated 3D Projection can be

viewed by only one person

Real-world applications supporting this technology is small

Display device, worn on the head that has a small display optics

Uses Video Gaming Portable

Entertainment Private Movie

Watching Remote Internet /

Images Electronic

Magnification Devices Connect them to

Cell phones IPods VCR and DVD Players Gaming Systems Computers

Sagging Issues Becomes Heavy

after periods of time Can cause health

problems such as: Eye straining Eye problems Headaches Seizures Nausea Vomiting

LASER KEYBOARDS

Mac, PC, Blackberry, PDA, SmartPhone

Zipo / Small Cell Phone

Using two separate infrared beams
