New Incredible Computer Input

Post by RyanPridgeon »

This is absolutely genius.



In more ways than one; it actually seems feasible. And to announce that it will be open source to the world is amazing. Massive respect to this dude.

I think you put the link in wrong. When you put the link in between the youtube tags you only add the letters at the end.

The third one, where you put an object on a table and it tells you things, sounds like Microsoft Surface.

Edit: Yay! Finally I can post. I was blacklisted for a while.

That looks really cool, but I'm going to miss tactile feedback. It seems everything is switching to touch surfaces or... paper.

This reminds me of the computers from Minority Report.

I'm not sure, I would imagine a lot of it is POC, but some of it has probably been done already. I mean the technology is there I don't see why most of it couldn't be done already

Looks amazing, whatever happened to that device that was suppose to turn an entire wall into a subwoofer when you put it on the wall?
